The NEC Society's mission means a great deal to me, and I hope you can join me in supporting their urgent mission to protect babies from necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).

This cruel disease is one of the leading causes of death in NICUs and the most common and serious gastrointestinal disease affecting newborns. Yet, few people outside the NICU have heard of the disease.

Up to 30% of the babies who develop NEC will die, and survivors often face life-long health challenges.

Right now, there is no cure for NEC. That is unacceptable with more than one baby per day dying from complications of this disease.

Yet, few people outside of the NICU have even heard of the disease.
