This Side Up: 15,000 Onesies to be Distributed to Parents of Newborns Throughout Central Virginia. read more >>
Days after Hayes died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), the Hayes Foundation was started to help create a future in which no parent has to endure the loss of a baby to SIDS. Since its inception, we have raised more than $500,000 that has been used to award grants for SIDS research and to develop partnerships to support organizations that help raise awareness of and educate about SIDS.
More recently, we have developed the This Side Up campaign to educate parents that the safest way for their babies to sleep is on their back.
We hope you'll join us in honoring Hayes. Although it's tragic that his light dimmed so quickly, we know he lit a light within all of us that will continue to shine. Hayes came into this world to make us aware, and we won't let him down.
