The two women have one major thing in common, and that is the fact that the NICU saved their child. As a way of giving back, each year Novakovski and Searcy plan a massive fundraiser to help raise money for the NICU. The ‘Bloom – An Evening of Love’ fundraiser has been taking place since 2012, and this year marks the largest donation the fundraiser has brought in, with an incredible total of $51,000. Over the past five years, a total amount of over $140,000 has been donated to help support the patients of the NICU, along with their families. The donation was made Monday, June 20 and Novakovski brought along her son Dutch and Searcy brought her daughter Until April 30, 2016 Charley. Both children were patients in the NICU and are here today thanks to the care they received. “Our babies are here today because of them, so we want to give back and keep giving back every year as much as we can,” Novakovski stated. In December 2015 the Saskatoon NICU expanded from 32 beds up to 38 beds, however the approximately 180 staff can often see up to 41 babies requiring care at one time. Throughout each year, the NICU has over 600 babies that require their care, some staying only for days, while others are required to stay for months. The next Bloom fundraiser will be held on May 13, 2017. For more information on Bloom, or to learn how you can contribute, visit www.bloomnicu.wix.com.
