COLLEGE STATION, Texas — A fourth grade student organized and collected donations for Tiniest Texans™, which are infants that are a part of Baylor Scott & White's Labor and Delivery and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
The student, Kinsey Kruger, came up with the idea to collect items through donations and to give to babies and their mothers in the NICU.
She received donations from fourth and fifth graders that wanted to help in collecting blankets, diapers, socks, scratch mittens and clothes.
The donation was part of her fourth-grade school project and school motto "others before self."
"It feels amazing to help little babies who need help," she said.
"[They] have done a great job in being able to receive these donations and rally her class and get all these donations that they done," said Tami Depenning. Depenning is the Director of Nursing - Women and Children at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - College Station. "It's really special for us, and they're right across the street so it does mean so much."
If you want to give to the unit or the Tiniest Texans™, you can find out how to volunteer at the hospital through their website.
