Fundraise for a world without NEC
We are deeply grateful to everyone who chooses to fundraise for the NEC Society by creating a personal fundraising page. Your efforts help bring our vision—a world without NEC—closer to reality.
Honor a loved one & support the NEC Society
Many families, clinicians, and people who care choose to fundraise on behalf of the NEC Society to help build a world without this devastating disease. Fundraising is an impactful way to recognize a significant milestone or anniversary, or honor a loved one.
Fundraising is an opportunity to share your story, raise awareness, and provide the NEC Society with the necessary resources to fuel our work.

- Sharing your story and fundraising may feel uncomfortable at first, but remember that your loved ones and community want to support you.
- Be sure to tag the NEC Society (@nec.society) in your communications and use the hashtag #preventNEC

Baker – Steps for Tiny Fighters
Our son Baker was diagnosed with NEC while in the NICU, and while we were one of the lucky ones, so many babies and families are not. Because of that, we want to do our part to help spread awareness and support research.
Courageous Cash
Shannan and Casey host their annual Courageous Cash fundraiser to honor their precious son, Cash, who tragically passed away from NEC. Every year, their community shows up to honor Cash, spread awareness, and raise funds to advance NEC research, education, and advocacy
In honor of Micah
Jenn and Noah’s son, Micah, tragically passed away from complications of NEC just before his first birthday. In 2014, they harnessed their grief to launch the NEC Society, which has grown into the world’s leading organization dedicated to building a world without this devastating disease.
A Toast to Tiny Tummies
Tyler and Janelle host their annual event, “A Toast to Tiny Tummies,” in honor of their son, Cole, who was diagnosed with NEC when he was in the NICU. We are grateful that Cole is thriving today.

Host an Event for the NEC Society
Many families and clinicians organize local events to honor children and families affected by NEC and spread awareness within their communities.
We would love for you to host a family gathering, walk, run, golf outing, gala, dinner party, barbecue, bake sale, or any event that feels right to you.
