Over 900 ICU baby supporters joined together on November 6th at our 2nd Annual Hope Parade held at Zoo Miami!

Former NICU babies, NICU families, friends and community members came to celebrate their NICU journey, honor a loss or pass hope to those families who currently have a baby in the NICU. American wildlife expert and personality Ron McGill, released a rehabilitated hawk into the wild in a touching tribute to memorialize babies who do not survive the NICU.

The Miami Heat Dancers, Miami Dance Project & Coral Reef Elementary Cheerleaders livened up the crowd, while children played in the Nicklaus Children’s Hospital Kid Zone. Thanks to our volunteers, generous sponsors and the NICU teams from Holtz Children’s Hospital and South Miami Hospital for making the morning so special.
