The Little Giraffe Foundation is dedicated to supporting parents and patients of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), delivering gift bags to NICUs, awarding support grants to hospitals, and funding medical research to address the challenges faced by premature births.
The Little Giraffe Foundation's Neonatal Research Grants are designed to fund research in the range of $5,000 - $10,000. These grants focus on addressing the long-term and immediate health needs arising from premature birth. The foundation supports research across a broad spectrum, including basic biological processes, genetics, clinical studies, reproductive health, environmental toxicology, and social and behavioral studies. Qualified scientists, doctors, and nurses affiliated with universities, hospitals, and research institutions are encouraged to apply.
