Our Impact

Testimonals

Receiving a backpack in the beginning of my NICU journey for my daughter was the first and probably one of the only things that helped me feel prepared for my daily trip to the hospital. This bag became known as my NICU emotional support bag. There wasn’t a day I went to the hospital without it.
— Amy, mother of 27 week preemie
The night I went into labor was the hardest and scariest thing in my life. Not having anything for myself or my son, I went into the NICU to see my son, and I was gifted a backpack that had stuff in it to help me and it was beautiful. I got to meet the amazing woman and her daughter Brooke that gifted it to me.
— Becca, mother of 24 week preemie

NICU Partnerships

Brooke’s Backpacks delivers backpacks directly to the NICUs we partner with. We make monthly deliveries to help ensure backpacks are available for families as soon as their baby is admitted to the NICU.

Our backpacks are intended to support families of babies born at 30 weeks gestational age or earlier, who will face longer NICU stays.

As Brooke’s Backpacks grows, we hope to partner with additional NICUs and support more families through their NICU journey.
