Help Anita & Michael After Tragic Loss
Donation protected
We're reaching out with heavy hearts to share the story of our dear friends, Anita and Michael Van Rheenen, who recently experienced an unimaginable loss. Anita gave birth to their triplets 4 months early. Tragically, two of their precious babies, Elizabeth and Norman, did not survive the delivery. Baby Peter is currently in the NICU, with a long fight ahead of him.
As you can imagine, Michael and Anita are facing immense emotional and financial burdens. We are starting this GoFundMe to help alleviate some of the financial stress so they can focus on healing and supporting the needs of baby Peter. Funds raised will go towards medical expenses for Anita and Peter, as well as funeral costs for Elizabeth and Norman. Any support you can provide, whether it's a donation or sharing this campaign, would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this incredibly difficult time.
Update 5/31
It is with heavy hearts that we update baby Peter has reunited with siblings Elizabeth and Norman. Please continue to share their stories, pray for the Van Rheenen family, and support in whatever way you can.
