Nora Benjamin's Story

01/31/2026

Hello everyone! I know I have been MIA for awhile, the holidays were a little rougher this year!

HOWEVER, it is that time of year again! I am reaching out to the hospital regarding the donations they could use this year and have already started putting together her Amazon “Wish List” with some of the things I’m sure they could always use more of! This means soon we will be organizing another bake sale and a purse auction to help raise funds again for any needed materials for the gowns made (which were absolutely perfect) last year! Remaining funds will go towards anything left on the “wish list” and if we are blessed to have any left it would be a monetary donation to the hospital!

Those of you that helped with gowns last year, if you are interested in helping again, please let me know! I have a friend at work who knits hats for the babies, so things like that are always welcome as well!

Thank you everyone for always supporting our cause! Thank you for being patient, when there isn’t much activity. And thank you for all the well thoughts, wishes, prayers and love sent this way! We are always and forever grateful for each and everyone of you!

It still blows my mind looking at the growth from 2024 donations to 2025 donations! Here’s to another great year of giving back! 💜🏥😇

Today was the BIG DAY! We finally got to deliver all the goodies to the hospital! It’s the perfect way to honor our sweet Nora! She was so loving, giving, so so NURTURING, compassionate, sweet and kind! She had the BIGGEST heart of any child I’ve ever known! So giving to the patients and their families each year not only honors her precious memory, but it also brings us much comfort!

I knew we out did ourselves this year, I knew we were able to provide so much more, BUT I did not realize how much more we were able to donate this year until looked at the photo from last year side by side with this years…

I mean WOW! I don’t know if you all realize that we could not possibly do this without you guys! I mean every single person who contributed, I’m just so thankful! Thank you to those that made it possible to add gowns this year! Thank you to those who helped me put logos on everything (which by the way multiple people loved and were even interested in having their own cup or blanket)!

I’m so overwhelmed, this has been a tough couple of weeks, but to finally see the outcome of what we’ve been working on for months is beautiful. I’m lost trying to find the words to truly express how grateful we are, but I can’t seem to find them!

So again, thank you everyone for continuing to support us and her memory! Thank you for always sending your love, thoughts and prayers!

Thank you! 🥹💜👼 🏥

The only thing I forgot in the video is the bedding/sheets and that’s because they are in the laundry room ready to be washed! 💜
