Description

We're celebrating our 20th Annual Iowa SIDS Foundation Walk for the Future!

Thank you for supporting our goal to make this our biggest and best year yet!

The funds raised at this annual fundraiser finance the day to day operations of providing support, education, and hope to families.

Examples include:

• Support: Emotional support to newly bereaved SIDS and SUID families through trained peer contacts, newsletters, seasonal mailings, support groups, and grief packets. Grief packets are available for parents, grandparents, surviving siblings, and childcare providers.

• Education: Safe sleep presentations are available for parents, childcare providers, healthcare providers, law enforcement, EMS services, and other community providers regarding SIDS and recommendations to reduce the risk of SIDS. In addition, educational brochures and posters are available for community educators free of charge.

• Hope: Annually, our Foundation supports research to provide our families hope that one day no more families will experience the unexpected death of an apparently healthy infant during sleep.
