Celebrating Hope: Saving Lives at the Neonatal Research Institute

Share

The Sharp Foundation recently hosted a reception for supporters of the Neonatal Research Institute (NRI) at Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women & Newborns. The NRI is one of the nation’s premiere institutes for improving the health of newborns through leading-edge treatments. The event was held at the home of Sara and Todd Bennett who credit the NRI for nothing less than saving their daughter, Reese’s life. The life-altering experience and the care they received became the Bennett’s inspiration to serve, both in helping other parents with ill children and through her work with the Sharp HealthCare Foundation.
