What We Do

London’s Legacy Inc. donates handmade blankets and care bags to children being treated in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) at The University of Maryland Medical Center and their families in hopes these items may bring some comfort to them during a traumatic time.

Why We Do It

This was a mission dear to Amy Huber, our founder, who created this charity in memory of her daughter, London Brielle Huber. In 2016, London passed away at The University of Maryland Medical Center when she was only 2 months old, and Amy sadly died less than a year later after suffering a heart attack.

How We Do It

Today, Amy’s friends and family continue London’s Legacy in honor of both Amy and London, and donations from caring individuals and organizations help us fulfill Amy’s goals for the charity.

The Story Behind Our Blankets

One of the most special tokens I received during my time of sorrow in the hospital was a handmade fleece blanket that I wrapped London in and held her in it for her last days alive.

I was then able to take that blanket home and sleep with it for many nights as it embraced her smell and brought me comfort in my grieving process.

... So We Make Blankets

Blankets crafted by London’s Legacy volunteers at home or during one of our blanket-making events are donated to families in The University of Maryland Medical Center’s PICU.

The Story Behind Our Bags

In a time of panic, when time seems to stand still yet you know it can’t go fast enough, we choose to recklessly grab anything in sight and stuff them in our pocket, leaving behind the items we may actually need but seem so pointless in that second.

… We thought it would be nice to make up small bags for families that find themselves in a similar situation at the hospital while not wanting to leave their child’s side.

... So We Make Bags

London’s Legacy assembles care bags containing toothpaste, mouthwash, bottled water, wipes, pain reliever, and other essentials so families with a child at The University of Maryland Medical Center can focus on what matters.

Your family’s kindness and generosity overwhelm me. Your visit today, the amazing fleece blankets and sumptuous meal, all lifted my spirit and reminded me of the best of humanity.

As you know, we often see very challenging situations and can be weighed down with the needs and cares we encounter here. For you to have lived through such terrible circumstances and respond with such grace is amazing — and heartening.

Though I with did not have the opportunity to meet London to get to know Amy, I can’t help but feel I was in their presence today, and that the seeds of goodness you planted in them are blossoming, perhaps even beyond what Amy imagined.

Thank you for London’s Legacy. We are very blessed by your friendship and witness.
