Memory Garden: a space to heal from prenatal loss

Tax deductible

The Memory Garden
  will be the nation’s first Jewish sacred space to reflect and heal from prenatal or infant loss.

Grieving families need somewhere to turn and with a small donation you can help make this sacred space to reflect and heal a reality. The Memory Garden is in the critical final phase of raising funds to create and maintain this garden. Initial funding already received from individuals, foundations, and institutions has been strong and shows the importance the community has placed on this one-of-a-kind Northern Californian San Francisco Bay Area space. Any new gift will go twice as far to fund The Memory Garden because of a dollar-for-dollar matching grant from the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life & Culture.  

We greatly appreciate your interest in joining Sinai Memorial Chapel Chevra Kadisha, the Bay Area Jewish Healing Center, and Jewish Family and Children’s Services to help create a comprehensive Jewish response to prenatal and infant loss at Eternal Home Cemetery in Colma, California.

The Memory Garden will make a makom, a place, for our tears, our learning, and our connection to one another.

Thank you to Yoav Potash  and Jewish Family and Children's Services  (JFCS) of San Francisco, Peninsula, Marin & Sonoma Counties in California for making this beautiful video (above) describing the origins of The Memory Garden.
