Updates:
The Ride of My Life delivered a total of 15 much needed infant, toddler, and booster seats to the Jersey Battered Women's Service in Morristown. This was a surprise and gratifying departure from our original mission. A big thank you to everyone who donated and made this possible. I hope you all feel as great as we do. The families there need a lot (especially new gifts appropriate for teens) if anyone wants to consider this organization in this season for giving.
We're looking forward to our next hospital (or other worthy organization) car seat delivery!
This article, appearing on the healthychildren.org website, provides valuable information for installing and using car seats.
There is no law in New Jersey that provides a parent with a free or discounted car seat if they do not have one upon leaving a hospital.
The Ride of My Life, started in 2006, has done previous charity work with various hospitals. This article, in a hospital newsletter, gives more detail about the charity.
CBS News gives a shout-out to The Ride of My Life!
