We collected and donated almost 40 outfits this year for Ryan's Closet! Thank you so very much to the family and friends who participated this year, we appreciate it so much! We also received many blankets, burp cloths, onesies, hats, socks and even shoes! They arrived in Seattle to the ISIS Foundation safely.
The ISIS Foundation is a nonprofit group that provides health and education programs in developing countries.
Uganda has the world’s third highest birth rate, yet the country ranks around 23rd in terms of infant mortality.
The ISIS Foundation has been working with Kiwoko to improve health care in Uganda for 10 years. The group helped establish a neonatal intensive care (NICU) unit at the hospital in 2000 that now assists around 500 babies a year.
Our donations will be packed at their Packathon this fall with many other donated items there in Seattle and then sent to Uganda. This is our second year donating to Africa and we find so much joy in it and in our dreams for the future for Ryan's Closet, expanding into even more parts of the world where there is desperate need for these little tiny ones!

In honor and loving memory of our sweet Ryan's 3rd birthday xoxo!
