Our Philanthropic Vision

The catalyst for the creation of NOLIN is very simple: NOLIN would not exist without the struggles we went through with our youngest son. After 5 weeks in the NICU, he spent the first two years of his life feeding through a gtube and the first three years of his life in therapy 3-5 times a week working to overcome the obstacles that caused to be unable to feed. Over the years we've found a surprising number of parents who can relate to our story in some way. 
We've had the good fortune of working with some exceptional organizations over the years. Below you'll find links to a few of them. We hope to continue to grow our list of organizations we've contributed to.
BABY2BABY provides children living in poverty, ages 0-12 years, with diapers, clothing and all the basic necessities that every child deserves.
In the last 8 years, BABY2BABY has distributed over 70 million items to children in homeless shelters, domestic violence programs, foster care, hospitals and underserved schools as well as children who have lost everything in the wake of disaster.
