Maxwell George Fleming Foundation

The Maxwell George Fleming Foundation is a Canadian non-profit organization dedicated to providing hospitals across Canada with CuddleCots. These specialized cooling systems allow bereaved families to spend more time with their deceased infants before saying goodbye. The foundation is registered with the charity number 743130080 RR 0001.

Background and Mission

The foundation was established in memory of Maxwell George Fleming, who was born on February 23, 2017, and lived for just six minutes. His unexpected passing was devastating for his family. At the hospital where Maxwell was born, the family had access to a CuddleCot, which allowed them to spend precious days together. This experience inspired the creation of the foundation to ensure all Canadian hospitals have access to this technology, providing families with the opportunity to create lasting memories with their children.

Activities and Achievements

As of the most recent updates, the Maxwell George Fleming Foundation has successfully placed multiple CuddleCots in Canadian hospitals. This includes placements at several key medical institutions, such as the Peterborough Regional Health Centre and Humber River Hospital in Toronto. By doing so, the foundation continues to fulfill its mission of giving grieving families the gift of time with their loved ones.
