Can You Donate Any Of These Items To CDH Families?



Our charity needs the following items for a project that we are putting together. Perhaps you or your company have some items that you can donate for a good cause.

We are collecting items for families of babies born with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, a severe and often deadly birth defect. You can visit our site, http://www.cdhsupport.org for more information about CDH. The items we are collecting will be used in care package for these families, to help ease their hospital stays. All donations are tax-deductible. We can come pick up local items in the Raleigh / Durham area. Because of the delicate health of these babies, we must ask that donations be new and from smoke-free and pet-free locations.

ANY donation at all, greatly appreciated!!!
