‘De Kleine Held’ (‘The Small Hero”) makes and donates free packages to parents of premature and sick newborns. Every set contains a bodywarmer, a knitted cap, incubator blankets, a wraparound blanket, an aromatic cloth, a small flag garland, the poem ‘brave’ and a personal letter. The organisation deliberately goes for ecological fabrics as due to the premature birth the skin of these newborns is extra vulnerable. Everything is handmade by volunteers. In this way, the non-profit organisation wants to give parents a ray of hope in a very emotional and intense period and make the uncertain times on the neonatal ward a bit more bearable. The support from the Alpro Social Fund will be used for purchasing materials for creating these free packages.
