Providing financial support to families with children in the NICU .
Unfortunately, NICU's become a temporary home for many families and their newborns; brought on by the unexpected circumstances of premature births, birth complications, surgical or genetic conditions, and a range of other diagnoses.
We know being present with your loved one can make all the difference.
Feeling connected is a crucial part of the healing process, as well as fostering a sense of comfort, love and strength during times of uncertainty.
We make it a little easier to stay close by
We recognize that financial constraints often hinder this crucial connection, which is why the ADL Foundation is here to provide a helping hand with 3 of the most essential and expensive needs that can challenge families staying close by their infants.
Help with food costs
The financial strain on a family with a newborn in the NICU can be overwhelming, particularly when it comes to meals. Spending extended hours at the hospital means increased reliance on external sources for food, leading to unexpected and often substantial expenses. Families facing this situation may need financial assistance to cover the cost of nutritious meals for both parents, ensuring they maintain their well-being during their stay.
Assistance with the cost of essential
Supplies
Essential Supplies is dedicated to supporting families during their NICU journey. We provide essential items that not only care for your baby but also offer comfort and ease for parents, allowing them to focus on being present for their little fighter. With our carefully curated supplies, we aim to make this challenging time a little easier, fostering love and connection every step of the way.
Support for transportation costs
Travel is often a significant financial burden for families with a newborn in the NICU. Many families may reside in distant locations, and the need to travel frequently to and from the hospital can bring on substantial costs. Transportation, and associated expenses quickly add up, making it challenging for families to afford the necessary visits to support their newborn's health. Financial assistance can alleviate this burden, ensuring that families can focus on their child's well-being without the added stress of unmanageable travel expenses.
