Fourth Annual PJ’s for Preemies Clothing Drive


Fourth Annual PJ's for Preemies

The 4th annual PJ’s for Preemies clothing drive is accepting donations of clothing for premature newborns going to the Covenant Health Care Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Saginaw. The clothes must snap or button in the front ONLY. Please no zippers, this is in order to allow for wires and tubes. Also being accepted in addition to pajamas are sleep sacks (most sleep sacks have zippers and that is acceptable). PJ’s for Preemies will accept new or like new preemie and newborn clothing (sizes preemie through 3 months).

PJ’s for Preemies was founded in 2008 when Christi, a new mother of a premature baby, and employee of Graff Bay City Chevrolet, noticed that the hospital didn’t have clothes that were suitable for the babies in the NICU.  Realizing how her own experience could have been more normalized with a simple addition of clothing that fit her child; she started PJ’s for Preemies.

Now in it’s fourth year PJ’s for Preemies has grown to include nine area businesses and the support of many generous donations! We are proud of all the hard work that Christie has put in, and how she has made PJ’s for Preemies grow in such a short time! However, there is still work that needs to be done, and your help is greatly appreciated.  All you need to do is take your donation to any of the following area businesses: Graff Chevrolet, Prime Brothers Furniture, Maier & Associates, Verizon wireless, Lil Muffins, Sweet Peach Baby Boutique and Stock Pot all in Bay City, and Magic Bean Café and Garber Buick in Saginaw. Please help parents of premature babies experience a more normal parenting experience, for what is an already trying time in their family’s life.  For more details you can visit www.pjsforpreemies.com or on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pjs.preemies
