A worthy cause

In the past, many of my readers have donated to Gracie’s Gifts, a very worthwhile cause that grew out of one of life’s greatest wounds---the loss of a child. Here is the message again as the new drive has started. Anyone interested in providing blankets for babies in need can contact Patrice Batyski via her Facebook page or me.
GRACIE'S GIFTS

On March 6, 2002, my granddaughter Gracie was born with fatal osteogenesis imperfecta (brittle bone disease). She lived a precious 19 hours.
While in the hospital, Gracie received a home-made blanket, Every year, on March 6, in Gracie's honor, my daughter Holly collects new blankets - store-bought and home-made, and donates them to Temple University Hospital's maternity ward. Temple encompasses the poorest section of Philadelphia, and these blankets are sometimes the only new item the baby receives.
We are looking forward to collecting 1,000 blankets to donate. Any new blankets, store bought or hand made, will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your past and continued generosity.
