I would suggest you instead give thewm cash and write a note,
anonymous or not, to tell them the money is sent simply to help with
the baby's formula. Based on personal experience when my newborn,
second boy was prescribed a very expensive formula. His was about
eight times the cost of a can of the good ole Pet Milk his brother and
most all the babies in my family came up on, and a can of the
expensive stuff made only about half of what Pet could.

Many years later, in my USMC office, I learned that a young PFC was
being counseled for what to do financially when his first born was put
on the same expensive formula. I quietly went to our OIC to tell my
story, and asked him to give my formula help cash to the PFC and to
also ask all in our office to do something similar, and to tell the
PFC that he could count on the same help every pay day until the baby
could be off that awful expense. The baby thrived, and the PFC was
soon promoted based a good deal on the attitude changes he made when
jknowing he truely was working amoung USMC's finest.
