NICU Babies
Families navigating neonatal intensive care are in crisis. Documentation is the last thing on their mind — and the first thing they'll wish they had when their child grows up. TTFF ensures their record exists, regardless of outcomes.
The Tiny Feet Foundation ensures every child — regardless of income, hospital, or circumstance — receives a permanent, meaningful birth record.
This isn't charity for the sake of optics. This is identity infrastructure for people who would otherwise never get it.
"A record exists for every child born in a hospital. The Tiny Feet Foundation ensures that extends to every child born anywhere."
In 2022, a nurse in a Level III NICU handed a grieving mother a single sheet of paper — a discharge summary for the child who had not survived.
That was all that existed. A form. A date. A name.
No record of the 11 days that child was here. No record of who held them first. No record of the sounds in the room, the names the parents whispered, or the life that had been present — however briefly.
That is the gap Tiny Feet Foundation exists to fill.
"Every child who arrives deserves a record. Every family who loses deserves to keep something permanent."
TTFF targets the children most likely to be overlooked by existing systems — not because they're less deserving, but because no infrastructure existed to serve them.
Families navigating neonatal intensive care are in crisis. Documentation is the last thing on their mind — and the first thing they'll wish they had when their child grows up. TTFF ensures their record exists, regardless of outcomes.
Birth Codex starts at $247. For many families, that's not accessible. The foundation closes that gap — delivering the same document, the same permanence, at no cost to the family.
Public hospitals and community health centers don't have the budget or leverage to negotiate premium infrastructure. TTFF provides Codex Core at no cost to qualifying institutions — with all compliance protections intact.
Disasters, emergency situations, and displacement events disrupt documentation systems entirely. TTFF maintains rapid-deployment capacity to restore birth record generation in affected areas — because a crisis doesn't pause identity.
TTFF runs on the same infrastructure as My Birth Codex — layered on top, not built separately. Every dollar goes further because the hard work is already done.
Most foundations are treated as separate. TTFF isn't. It is designed to create leverage at every level of the My Birth Codex ecosystem — commercially, institutionally, and categorically.
Walking into a hospital conversation changes entirely when you can say: we don't just sell infrastructure — we give it to institutions who can't afford it. That shifts the dynamic from vendor to partner.
You are no longer a product company. You are a company defining a category: birth identity preservation. TTFF is the proof that the category matters beyond commerce.
Families don't just buy from My Birth Codex — they believe in it. TTFF is the evidence that the mission is real. It converts customers into advocates and donors into evangelists.
This is how you become the standard. The default. The name associated with birth identity. Governments notice when a private infrastructure is serving a public need at scale.
"selling products"
"owning the identity layer of birth"
"The same permanent record. The same archival standard. Regardless of where a child enters the world."
Whether you're an individual, a hospital, a corporation, or a foundation — there is a defined role for you in the TTFF ecosystem.
