Children’s Healing Institute plans Breakfast at Tiffany’s Tea
Florida Weekly Palm Beach Edition – March 23, 2023
The Children’s Healing Institute will host Breakfast at Tiffany’s Tea 2-4 p.m. Tuesday, March 28, North Palm Beach Country Club.
The fundraiser supports the TEACUP Preemie Program, which helps parents cope with the challenges of preemie parenthood from the NICU through the transition home.
Since 2008, the TEACUP has been helping parents navigate the journey of prematurity. Designed specifically to address the unique needs of preemie parents, TEACUP provides education and resources to reduce parental stress and support infant health and development.
TEACUP is a comprehensive support program. Services are provided in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the home, and include hospital NICU support groups, individual support, breast pump lending, education and resources — all to reduce parental stress and support preemie health and development. As the preemie transitions home, the parent may feel overwhelmed and unprepared. In addition to continued emotional support, the Baby Bungalow provides supplies a family may need to manage their first weeks at home. Items such as cribs, diapers, clothing and blankets are available to families at no cost to ensure they feel supported in their transition.
The Breakfast at Tiffany’s-themed fundraiser includes champagne, mystery boxes and a traditional English tea, which will include English sandwiches, seasonal pastries, traditional British scones and strawberry preserves.
