According to the World Health Organization, an estimated 15 million babies are born too early every year. That is more than 1 in 10 babies. Almost 1 million chil- dren die each year due to complications of preterm birth. Many survivors face a life- time of disability, including learning disabilities and visual and hearing problems. The March of Dimes of Pennsylvania states that every year in the United States, nearly half a million babies are born in too soon, with 16,250 of them being born in Pennsylvania. During November, Prematurity Awareness Month® the March of Dimes focuses everyone’s attention on the serious issue of premature birth. Ashley Fulmer, Community Director with the March of Dimes of Pennsylva- nia presented a plaque as an expression of thanks to the doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals for all they do each day as they care for newborns and their families. Jennifer Miller, Director of Maternal and Child Nursing at Evangelical Commu- nity Hospital’s The Family Place said, “Our family of staff continue to promote and encourage mothers to go to 39 weeks. Research shows this milestone in the preg- nancy encourages strong brain, body, and emotional development. In cases where it’s not possible to go the 39 weeks, we work one-on-one with families and the new baby to ensure that all prematurity concerns are addressed. For us, it’s an honor to be part of any birth and to work with families to start them off on a healthy note.” November is Prematurity Awareness month and World Prematurity Day was ob- served on November 17, 2014, by the March of Dimes along with organizations in Africa, Europe, and Australia.

Project Linus: Make A Blanket Day By Kay Poeth Penny Billheim, Middleburg, and Harrison Malloy, Boy Scout Troop 538, Lewisburg, cut ties for a Project Linus fleece blanket. Faith Lutheran Church on Rt. 45 in Lewisburg was a beehive of activity as blanketeers filled the Fellowship for the Project Linus Make A Blanket Day. In one area quilters assembled quilts using batting and sewed the edges. Another group of women and Girl Scouts knotted the quilt pieces together. Then the completed quilts were passed on to the next station.

After passing inspection each quilt received a Project Linus white satin label as a Seal of Approval and a card with the names of the quilt makers.

Then the next wave of volunteers including Girl Scouts, Mifflinburg High School students and senior ladies tied knots on the edges of the fleece blankets creating warm cuddly blankets!

A Project Linus blanket is meant to be “a hug when you need one most.” Some of the blankets will be donated to agencies serving children who think no one in the world cares. By the end of the year the Central Susquehanna Chapter of Project Linus expects to have deliv- ered over 1500 blankets. Project Linus delivers blankets year round. If your group would like to make blankets, email Pat Warren at pwcsvpl@ windstream.net or call 570-966-3675 for current needs and sizes. Anyone can make a blanket for a child infant to age 18.
