A North Texas business is stepping up to help desperate mothers across the state after seeing an I-Team investigation.
"They saw the news story that you guys ran with the I-Team talking about the increase in abandoned babies," said Marketing Director Danielle Boyd.
"The fact that there's babies out there that are not being dropped off safely, or that there's people out there who don't really know what their options are… they just wanted to try to help with that," said Boyd.last month into the increasing number of newborn babies found hidden in bags, left out in the cold, and thrown in dumpsters.
For years, Dallas resident Patsy Summey, with the non-profit called"Baby Moses Dallas," made sure every fire station had a bright yellow"Safe Baby Site" sign which includes an outline image of mother's arm cradling a baby. As for those yellow signs, the I-Team searched and found them still hanging at most, but not all, fire stations. The I-Team explained that the seed money, which was used to originally fund the signs, ran out.
