The funds will be used to purchase a "Transport Isolette" similar to the one shown below right by Dr. Cavett. The device is used to move infants for treatment within the hospital. The "Transport Isolette" costs over $7,000. The donation from the Capital District Foundation will cover almost half the cost and will be helpful to children throughout Washington DC Area.
