Meet sweet baby Rowan 💙
Rowan was born at 32 weeks at Terrebonne General and, shortly after birth, took his very first flight to Manning Children’s Hospital in New Orleans for specialized care.

He is currently still in the NICU and doing great — working hard on his feedings and putting on weight like a champ. While this journey wasn’t the one his family expected, they are so proud of his strength and resilience.

Rowan and his family are counting down the days until he’s finally home where he belongs. Please join us in sending continued love, prayers, and encouragement to this precious boy and his amazing family. 💙✨

Meet Baby Eden, the newest member of our Wings for the Win family. She was born at 24 weeks and is already proving she’s a fighter.

She’s currently in the NICU at Ochsner Baptist in New Orleans, growing stronger each day while her family counts down the days until she’s home in their arms.
Please join us in sending love, encouragement, and positive thoughts to Baby Eden and her amazing family. We’re cheering you on every step of the way, sweet girl!

🌎💜 World Prematurity Day 💜🌎

Today we honor the tiniest warriors who came into this world earlier than expected but stronger than anyone could imagine.
Premature birth changes a family forever — the monitors, the waiting, the prayers, the hope… and the incredible bravery of babies fighting for every breath.

To all the NICU parents: you are heroes too. The strength it takes to show up every day, to hold onto faith, and to love through the hardest moments is nothing short of extraordinary.

And to our miracle babies — the ones still fighting and the ones who have grown into thriving, unstoppable little humans — you inspire us daily. 💜🦋

As part of Wings for the Win, we stand with every family walking the NICU journey. Today we shine a light, spread awareness, and wrap this community in love and support!

💜🦋 If you’ve been touched by prematurity, we’re holding space for you today.
💪🏼 Our little fighters are mighty.
💜 Our NICU families are brave.

✨ Introducing Syre Alton Bean! ✨
Born July 8, 2025 — just over 10 weeks early — weighing in at a mighty 3 lbs 6.7 oz. 💙

Right now, Syre is busy stealing the hearts of all the nurses in the NICU at Ochsner Baptist in New Orleans as he grows stronger each day. Soon, he’ll be heading home to his loving mom, dad, and his furry four-legged siblings. 🐾
Welcome to the Wings for the Win family, sweet Syre! We can’t wait to have you home!
