We received an enthusiastic thank you from Emmy Steubing, Director of Edmonton Public Library Fund Development, for our donation towards their Welcome Baby Kit program.
This program encourages young parents to engage with their children though singing and reading by distributing a Welcome Baby Kit to new parents at their child's second month immunization visit to an Alberta Health public health clinic.
The kit contains a children's music CD, a story book, a brochure explaining the program and a letter letting them know which person or group donated the funds for their kit.
The program has raised enough funds to continue into 2018, at which time the City of Edmonton council has pledged to continue with ongoing funding of the program.
