Hearts of Harvest

I want to express my gratitude to the Hearts of Harvest foundation. What an amazing organization! 

I am a typical stay at home mother to 3 girls. Brad,my husband, works very hard to support our family. Through all of this we have not even begin to think about the financial burden that this experience is going to put on our lives. At this point we just want to get Jacob well. I want to once again hold my baby boy, kiss his cheek, and take him home. Unfortunately, we still have a long haul ahead of us. 

Meanwhile, our other three girls have been at my mom's. She has been doing her best to take care of them full-time as well as her responsibilities as caregiver for her elderly mother, but she needs help. 

Hearts of Harvest reached out to us! With the help of my great friend Jen McDonald and her aunt, Foundation Directer Becki Brown. Through the hospital and a social worker we were able to receive a grant to help us pay for child care. Now, because of Hearts of Harvest, she can afford to be with them all the time. Given the grant, they have been enrolled in a local, at home play-school. Here they can make friends to support them through this difficult time. I want them to have positive memories after this experience has passed. Hearts of Harvest has made that a possibility. Thank you Hearts of Harvest! 

A special thanks to Jennifer McDonald,  Becki Brown, and Lucile PackardChildren's  Hospital.
