Hushabye Nursery Announces Annual “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” Gala to Shine Light on Substance-Exposed Newborns and Their Families

Hushabye Nursery is thrilled to announce its annual fundraising gala, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, to be held on Friday, November 1, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the elegant Westin Kierland Resort & Spa.

This heartwarming evening will bring together community leaders, healthcare professionals, and generous supporters to celebrate hope, healing, and the mission of Hushabye Nursery: embracing substance-exposed babies and their caregivers with compassionate, evidence-based care that changes lives.

The gala promises an unforgettable evening featuring a fabulous dinner under the stars, live music, silent and live auctions, inspiring stories of resilience, and opportunities to directly support life-changing programs for pregnant and parenting families affected by the opioid crisis.

“This year is especially meaningful as we celebrate the milestone of caring for our 1,000th baby,” says Tara Sundem, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Hushabye Nursery.

 

“Each baby represents a story of courage and every family we serve is a reminder that love, support, and non judgmental care can transform lives.”

 

Funds raised through Twinkle Twinkle Little Star support Hushabye’s unique model of care, including inpatient medical services for newborns experiencing withdrawal, as well as outpatient behavioral health and peer support services for families working toward recovery and stability.

Sponsorship opportunities, table reservations, and in-kind auction donations are currently being accepted. To get involved or learn more, please visit https://www.hushabyenursery.org

 

Join us for a night filled with purpose, connection, and a sky full of hope for Arizona’s most vulnerable little stars.
