Give for GIVE TO MAX DAY! From a nurse about Second Stork: “We were able to provide diapers/pack-n-play to a family who was in the process of moving from shelter to their own apartment, many tears were shed as the last item they needed was a safe place for their baby to sleep and with the help of Second Stork this was achieved! This family had worked so hard to get their own place while pregnant it was a great feeling of support to be able to provide this, we love our partnership with Second Stork!” Can you help? Give to the Max is this week - give today at https://www.givemn.org/organization/Secondstork

To keep a baby safe, don’t believe all you read online. Here’s a great article in PARENTS magazine (a verified source) on “viral doesn’t mean verified”, and it’s especially true for safe sleep for babies. Take a minute to read to know how to give a baby safe slumber, or check out the American Academy of Pediatrics safe sleep guidelines.

At Second Stork, safe sleep is a priority, and that’s why we give nearly 600 playards with a bassinet attachment, plus over 3000 board books and brochures on safe sleep, to hospitals to distribute to families in need BEFORE they take a newborn out of hospital. Let’s keep all babies safer.

A new investigation from 'Consumer Reports' sheds light on the dangerous information online, just as rates of infant deaths are rising.
