Denver Health's Newborns in Need
Donate Now

Newborns in Need focuses on our community’s smallest, most vulnerable citizens. Each year, nearly 4,000 babies are delivered at Denver Health. Unfortunately, more than 85% of these children are born to families who live below the poverty level, often forcing them to make heart-wrenching choices. No family should have to choose between buying items of necessity for their baby or paying their rent. But this is the dire situation thousands of new parents face each year in the greater Denver Metro area.

Through a series of baby showers, the Newborns in Need campaign collects thousands of new baby items and cash and distributes them to those in need, so their babies get the healthy start they deserve. 

Every year, thousands of families receive “Warm Welcome” bags filled with essentials like blankets, diapers, clothing, and car seats. However, in order to provide for every needy family, we still have a long way to go. Your donation to this program helps our newborns go home in comfort and safety, with many of the supplies necessary for a great start on life.

Car Seat Program

Car Seat Program

In the United States, motor vehicle crashes are the number one cause of death for people under 21 years of age. Half of all injured children treated in Denver Health’s Emergency Department were not properly restrained while riding in a vehicle. When car seats are used properly they are capable of preventing many injuries and deaths among children and adolescents. At Denver Health we believe that car seat safety should begin with an infant’s first ride home from the hospital. Your donation will help ensure that each baby born at Denver Health will arrive home safely from the hospital in a brand new car seat.
