I am a midwife raising funds to help a local family recover from an unimaginable loss. After a normal and healthy pregnancy, their sweet baby boy passed away unexpectedly due to a rare and unavoidable emergency. He was born sleeping on August 1st, and his parents and siblings are navigating how to move forward through shock, grief and love.

While trying to process this incredible tragedy, this sweet family is also struggling to cover their living expenses and at the moment, the parents are unable to take time away from work to grieve. Please, help us to come together as a community and hold this family in security and safety. Your donation will help to cover memorial expenses for their sweet son, as well as help with rent, bills, groceries and other immediate needs so the parents can take time off work to be with their children and recover as a family unit.

On behalf of myself and the greater midwifery community, thank you from the bottom of my heart for caring for this family and contributing to their well-being. We care for our families like they are our own, and we appreciate the outpouring of love and support during difficult times such as these. Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping.
