IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0KNOWING HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE EYES ON YOUR INFANT AT ALL TIMES WE ALSO KNOW THIS ISN'T POSSIBLE. ESPECIALLY IN A DAYCARE ENVIRONMENT. BECAUSE OF THIS WE HAVE LAUNCHED THE GREEN GLOW PROJECT, PROVIDING ALL LICENSED AND REGISTERED DAYCARE CENTERS AND IN-HOME PROVIDERS WITH OWLETS FOR ALL INFANTS IN THEIR CARE IN THE STATE OF IOWA. WE CURRENTLY HAVE OWLETS PLACED IN HALF THE COUNTIES IN IOWA AND 600 INFANTS ARE BEING MONITOREDWHILE THEY SLEEP EACH DAY.
