Red Cross Charity Drive Zumbathon

You’re helping the ICU medical team warm up little ones... from their toes to their ears

By contributing much-needed funds to equip the brand new paediatric Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital, you’ve helped the Children’s Hospital Trust purchase a Giraffe Warmer for the Neonatal High Care Unit.

The ICU needs four of these life-saving machines to keep neonatal babies safe and warm as they heal from illness or injury.

A Giraffe Warmer is a revolutionary heater designed to eliminate a large, overhead heater. It makes it much easier to observe the patient and perform procedures such as X-ray examinations and even surgery.

One Giraffe Warmer costs R493 000.
