My Story…
As a mom, there’s nothing more important to me than the health and wellbeing of our children. This Mother’s Day, I’ll be running a 5km race in support of the Calgary Health Foundation’s Newborns Need campaign — helping provide life-saving care, technology, and research for premature and critically ill babies across Southern Alberta.
While I was fortunate enough to never need the NICU with my own son, many of my close friends and family have experienced the fear, uncertainty, and strength that comes with having a baby in neonatal care. I’ve seen firsthand how vital these resources, healthcare teams, and advancements are for families during some of the hardest moments of their lives.
Every donation helps give newborns the best possible start and supports families who need it most. Thank you so much for supporting this incredible cause alongside me. 💛
