It's National Bike Safety Day! Here's your reminder checklist before your little one hits the road:

✅ Helmet fits snugly — no tilting side to side
✅ Two fingers above the eyebrows
✅ Straps form a "V" under each ear
✅ Buckle snug under the chin
✅ Bright or reflective clothing if riding near traffic

Bike helmets reduce the risk of serious head injury by up to 85%. It takes 10 seconds and it could save their life if tragedy strikes.

Happy Interpreter Appreciation Day! At Manning Family Children’s, we want to ensure that our culturally and linguistically diverse patients/families can communicate effectively with the medical staff and team members.

The Javier Adrian Flores Fajardo Interpretation Program at Manning Family Children's provides interpreter services for all patients and families who speak a language other than English or who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Interpreter services are provided through a combination of video remote and phone interpretation and in person interpreters. Manning Family Children’s uses certified medical interpreters. They have the technical knowledge to interpret your questions and comments, as well as the medical information provided by your child’s healthcare team.

Language access services are free and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

To our extraordinary interpreter team, thank you for all you do! 💙 💬

Born at just 25 weeks and weighing only 1 pound, Py’lan fought from the very first minute of her life. She spent 206 days in our level IV NICU, where every minute of expert, compassionate care helped her grow stronger.

Today, she’s proof that when every minute matters, miracles are possible.

Your gift of just $10 or more is proof that when our community shows up for kids, anything is possible. Give before time runs out >> https://www.givenola.org/organization/ManningChildrens

Half of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin by age 14 and three-quarters by age 24… Only 20% of these kids receive treatment, and only a small fraction are treated by a child or adolescent psychiatrist.

School-based psychiatry care presents a unique opportunity to intervene, eliminating significant barriers to access, including transportation. Other benefits include less class time missed, less work time missed for parents and caregivers, and more opportunity for collaboration between school staff and mental health professionals. Manning Family Children’s is bringing school-based counseling and healthcare services to select public New Orleans schools in need, but we couldn’t do it without your support.

This is what we can accomplish together when we put your generous donations to work.

Help us make an undeniable impact again this year on this important day of city-wide giving, where every minute matters!

Each donation of just $10 or more this GiveNOLA Day makes a difference, and we are aiming to finish in the top three for most unique donors again this year, helping us earn matching grant dollars through the Greater New Orleans Foundation.

Your gift today is an investment:
⏳ To keep kids in Louisiana, without having to leave the state for complex pediatric cancer and blood disorder care.
⏳To improve pediatric mental health outcomes through the Behavioral Health Center at Manning Family Children's, the ONLY psychiatric program in the Gulf Coast region exclusively dedicated to reaching the mental health needs of children.
⏳To give kids a second chance at life with the first and only pediatric dialysis and kidney transplant program in Louisiana.
⏳To never say no to families that come through our doors. We serve every child, every time. No matter their circumstances, ability to pay, or severity of illness.
⏳And so much more!

If you’ve ever felt the impact of compassionate care, we hope you’ll consider giving back today. Just a small $10 donation can extend that same care to others who need it most. Give today at https://www.givenola.org/organization/ManningChildrens.

We are over halfway through and we are overwhelmed with gratitude.

In these 13 hours, you have already made 475 donations! That is not a small thing—your impact means children being fed, NICU babies being cared for, a child receiving lifesaving cancer treatment, and families getting to stay close to the people they love most.

But we're not done! We still have 650 minutes to go, and we need YOU to help us keep the momentum going and reach our goal of 1,440 unique donors (🚨 we still have 965 donors to go 🚨).
