Community Nonprofit Highlight: Lucas’ Fund November 7th Wine Tasting











Lukas' Fund was established in 2003 to support the physical, emotional and educational needs of infants and families in the Grady Memorial and Athens Regional Neonatal Intensive Care Units. Lukas' Fund is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping infants and their parents in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).



They focus on the following important needs:


· Educating parents and staff about the special needs of infants in the NICU and preparing them for discharge

· Providing resources for education, physical therapy, end-of-life care, and other family needs not currently funded

· Creating “Lukas’ Rooms” in NICUs around the country that provide a place for parents to room in with children who are going home soon and a peaceful environment for ned-of-life care when they can’t provide educational resources regarding end-of-life care to parents and caregivers


Join us for a special Wine Tasting and Silent Auction, located at the beautiful home of neonatologist and long time supporter of the Lukas' Fund, Dr. Anne Critz. Come and enjoy an afternoon of fun while tasting wines from around the world with amazing food pairings. Space is limited, so please RSVP today! Suggested donation is $35.

Please contact info@lukasfund.org or call 706-247-4953 for more information.
