Headstones for Baby Alfie and Darcy
Donation protected
Thanks for visiting our fundraising page,
Me and my sister Kim are looking for a little help.
A little back ground and information -
Our auntie Kelly and uncle simon (also those who know us know they’ve been like our mum and dad for the past 12 years) have sadly had 2 children pass away.
In 2004 Kelly was pregnant with her first child, a baby boy. Unfortunately, their baby boy- Alfie Dean Challoner was born as an emergency on 9/11/2004 stillbirth.
As well as this, many people have recently been made aware that our sister Darcy Joanna Challoner was born 9 weeks early (29/03/2020) with many complications.
After undergoing many tests and scans, it was shown she would be unable to breath on her own. On 9/04/2020 she gained her wings and went to heaven. Of course this is a difficult time for everyone in the family as well as close friends - with the global pandemic going on, it is hard to hold a proper funeral and memorial or even have people there to support one another due to lockdown restrictions.
So, with all this going on as well as mourning the loss of another child, we thought it would be nice to take the pressure from them both and let them have a breather before having the stress of buying headstones for both Alfie and Darcy as they are very expensive as are funerals.
We know this is a massive ask and we are currently keeping this hidden from them so we can give them the funds as a surprise once the funds have been raised. We appreciate anything anyone can donate as little or big as can be donated will be used towards two beautiful headstones for their babies graves.
They’ve done a lot for me and Kim as well as for everyone around them so we are hoping to give something back as a surprise with the help of our Facebook friends.
