The Difference You'll Make
![charity-logo-350x150px Miracle Babies logo](https://inspiredadventures.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/charity-logo-350x150px-3.png)
The money you raise during the Trek For Their Future Kilimanjaro 2024 challenge will be used to provide life-changing peer support to families from pregnancy, throughout their emotional and challenging hospital journey with a premature or sick newborn, and for years beyond.
The experience of having a baby born premature or critically ill can be life changing and it affects the entire family unit. The impacts can last a lifetime.
Around 1 in 6 babies are born requiring specialised medical care, with 1 in 10 premature (before 37 weeks). Born as early 23 weeks and weighing less than 500 grams, these babies will spend the first few months of their life in hospital facing a number of health challenges, procedures and surgeries. The experience can be traumatic and families face a rollercoaster of emotions. Once these babies go home, the journey doesn’t end.
Sadly, up to 1,000 babies in Australia will lose their fight for life each year due to prematurity or sickness at birth.
Miracle Babies Foundation provides vital peer support programs in-hospital and beyond, along with education and information resources for these families from pregnancy, throughout their hospital journey, after discharge and for families sadly grieving the loss of their newborn. Miracle Babies is also a leading parent advocate involved in research, trials and studies which will positively impact the outcomes of these babies and their families for years to come.
