6th Annual PJ's For Preemies Clothing Drive

6th Annual PJ's For Preemies Clothing Drive

BAY CITY, Mich. – This year at Graff Bay City we are officially designating the upcoming holiday months as the Season of Giving! We are so appreciative of all the support our community shows us throughout the year and we want to do what we can to give back, starting with the 6th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive!

Every year this event is a smashing success and it is truly rewarding to see our friends, family, and neighbors come together to make a difference in the lives of families who are faced with premature births. Since no one expects their child to be born prematurely, these families are often not prepared with the clothing their child needs. Through the PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive, we are able to provide the right sized clothing for these babies during their stay at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, since they are typically much smaller than full-term babies.

We want to invite you to join us in the 6th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive to support the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Covenant Hospital in Saginaw, MI! Just stop by Graff Bay City to drop off your donation of new or like-new pjs with snap or button fronts in preemie through 3 month sizes! In particular, gowns and newborn sizes are needed this year! And, like last year, GRAFF BAY CITY WILL MATCH ALL DONATIONS!

Together we can all make a difference in our local community! Get more information on the PJ's for Preemies Foundation: http://pjsforpreemies.com/

5th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive


5th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive

BAY CITY, Mich.- The PJ's for Preemies Drive is back and Hank Graff Bay City could not be more excited to be involved with this program again this year! The 5th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive is going on now and we need your help!

Bringing a child into this world is an exciting time, but unfortunately some babies are born prematurely and must spend extra time at the hospital in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICO). Not only can this be a stressful time for those families, but often these parents are left unprepared without appropriate clothing for their child while at the NCIU. Since most 0-3 month clothing sizes are designed to fit babies that weigh 7-9 pounds, this clothing is way too big for a baby that only weighs 3-5 pounds!

5th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing DriveThis is why we are asking for your help! We are working to collect preemie and newborn clothing for the NCIU at Covenant Hospital in Saginaw so that we can provide parents with clothing for their baby that fits properly, and try to help "normalize" the parenting experience during that time. The new or like-new preemie and newborn clothing must snap or button on the front only, in order to accommodate wires and tubes (no zippers). This year, pajamas and sleep sacks are also needed, and since more sleep sacks have zippers, that will be acceptable.

To donate to the 5th Annual PJ's for Preemies Clothing Drive, just stop by Graff Bay City! We're also excited to announce that we will match whatever donations we receive! Stop by today, Hank Graff Chevy is located at 3636 Wilder Road, Bay City, MI 48706.
