The cards, which feature photographs of infants treated in the UAMS neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), are on sale for $8 for a pack of 10.

Five designs are available — three include a holiday greeting, and two are blank. Each pack features one design. Photos were taken by Little Rock photographer Amy Davenport, who donated her services to the project.

Click here to view the cards. An order form is available online, and orders can be placed by mail, fax or by calling (501) 603-1255. Payment can be made by Visa, Mastercard, Discover, cash or check. A shipping cost of 50 cents or less per pack will be added to each order of less than 30 packs. Cards also are available for purchase starting Nov. 1 in the UAMS Medical Center gift shop and the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute (formerly the Arkansas Cancer Research Center) gift shop, both located on the UAMS campus.

All proceeds will be used to provide support services to families of infants in the UAMS NICU. The UAMS NICU provides state-of-the-art care for many of Arkansas’ tiniest infants — some weighing less than two pounds and requiring hospitalization for weeks or months.
