PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - A pioneering organization that is dedicated to reducing sleep-related infant deaths is marking its 25th anniversary with a celebration and a big announcement about its expansion.

Founder and CEO Judy Bannon says the organization has more than 2,000 partners across the United States, with educational partners in Canada and Israel. And now, Cribs for Kids will have a presence in Australia.

In addition to providing more than one million cribs to households in need, Cribs for Kids has donated over $1 million in safe sleep products across southwestern Pennsylvania.
