The following post is part of a two-part series sponsored by Yahoo! Every time someone clicks here to make Yahoo! their homepage, they’re showing their support for Friends of Maddie!

As you all know, Mike and I started Friends of Maddie with the money many of you donated to our family after Maddie passed away. Friends of Maddie is obviously so important to our family – by working on projects, we not only extend her legacy’s reach, but we feel close to her.

We have big plans for FoM – we want to be in every NICU that requests us. We’re working on that, slowly but surely. But our biggest goal for 2011 is finally being able to give grants to NICU families that need financial support.

Thanks to Yahoo! it will happen!! Every time someone clicks here to make Yahoo! their homepage, Yahoo will donate money to Friends of Maddie – up to $10,000!

$10,000 will allow us to have a fund that will sustain many families as they go through one of the most difficult times in their lives. We are so, so humbled that Yahoo! has chosen Friends of Maddie.

Thank you all for continuing to support us and help Maddie’s legacy live on! Mike and I (and the rest of our families) are so grateful to always have your love and friendship.
