There are many ways you can be a Shepherd Volunteer and help support the infants and families in the NICU. Thank you to all of the devoted volunteers for Little Lambs of Hope!

Be a Sewing Shepherd: Our gift bags include many hand-made items for both infant and parent. Sewing is an invaluable way to support these gifts of love. If sewing is a talent you want to share, we are in need of many to sew Bonding Hearts. These are pheromone hearts that parents are encouraged to wear between their chest and clothing to be placed with the baby so he or she can “smell” their parents and bond to their scent.

Be an Event and Fundraising Shepherd: Fundraising is what supports us and allows us to pass on your generosity to NICU infants and families in need. If you have a gift for event planning or fundraising, we’d love to connect with you. Email Candy at: little.lambs.of.HOPE@gmail.com
