️Help Us Support The Vilomah Community ️
Hi, my name is Kirsty, and I’m raising funds to support a beautiful charity that is incredibly close to my family’s heart — The Vilomah Community.
My Cousin’s Story
In March 2018, my cousin gave birth to her daughter, Amelia Maeve Olive, who was born sleeping at 38 weeks. She received support from some amazing organisations, including Bears of Hope. However, at that time, The Vilomah Community did not yet exist.
More recently, on July 23, 2025, my cousin gave birth to her son, Jack Rory William, who was born sleeping at 16 weeks. This time, she was connected with the incredible charity — The Vilomah Community. Their gentle and compassionate support made the time she had with Jack incredibly meaningful. They ensured everything was beautifully arranged:
✨ Memory-making
Photography
Practical and emotional support
Organising services and next steps
Their care helped her make irreplaceable memories with her son, even in the most heartbreaking of circumstances.
️ About The Vilomah Community️
The Vilomah Community was founded by two bereaved mothers, Bek and Megan, in honour of their daughters, Ruby and Mia.
Their mission is to walk beside families for 12 months after pregnancy loss or infant death, ensuring that no one walks this journey alone.
They provide:
- Memory-making guidance and keepsakes
- Professional photography
- Liaison with hospitals and funeral homes
- Support for autopsies, medical appointments, and funeral planning
- Assistance navigating anniversaries, due dates, and holidays
- Guidance for workplaces to support bereaved parents returning to work
- Peer connection in person or online
- Access to counselling services
They currently support families experiencing:
Miscarriage
Stillbirth
Neonatal death (within 28 days of life)
Sudden infant death
Compassionate induction
(from 16 weeks gestation onwards)
Why Your Donation Matters
Your support will help The Vilomah Community continue their vital work with grieving families across Australia. Right now, their services extend from the Riverina, but with your help, they hope to expand nationwide — so no family has to go through this alone.
Donate Now
If you're able to contribute, no matter how small, you’ll be helping create a world where every grieving family is supported with dignity, compassion, and love.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
