C\u00e9line, <\/strong>\u00a0Oka\u00efdi<\/strong><\/a> Marketing Coordinator for Canada, explains how the team was able to organise this special donation for newborns at Montreal\u2019s Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celine, how\u2019d you come up with this idea?<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I was reading in \u00cfDKIDS TODAY that the neonatal unit at the Necker Hospital had asked Jacadi for help<\/a>, I figured hospitals here probably had the same needs! Plus, with all the clothing stores closed, I heard from several parents\u2019 groups on Facebook that it was difficult for certain mums with limited resources to clothe their newborns.
With Timoth\u00e9e\u2019s approval, we contacted the maternity ward at the Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine in Montr\u00e9al<\/a> via Facebook. They gave us the number of the person in charge, and the next day we got permission from the shopping centre to go to the store to pick up clothing from an Oka\u00efdi shop. Then, we set up a meeting with the hospital department to be able to drop off the donation as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What items did you donate?<\/em><\/strong>
<\/strong><\/em>We donated about 100 items of clothing, mainly \u00a0Oba\u00efbi<\/a> clothing for the newborn babies, but also a few things for their siblings. We also slipped in a few red noses, dominoes and balloons in the clothing bags to bring a little fun into these care units. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What will the clothing be used for?<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The priority will be the neonatal unit, which takes care of mothers in urgent medical situations, which are more serious than you might think: when a baby is born early, getting everything you need from one day to the next can be very challenging for some!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will you take away from this experience?<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personally, being at home all the time, just with my own family, just on WhatsApp, the computer, also means… never seeing what\u2019s going on outside! I ask myself everyday: what can we do to help others, here and how?
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe Oka\u00efdi is a foreign brand, but we have a responsibility to our community of parents\/customers!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We have brought our WE ACT FOR KIDS commitment to Canada. It\u2019s in Oka\u00efdi\u2019s DNA, so we said \u201cLet\u2019s go!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
