Sponsor Gathering 2026

You Can Change The Story Of Baby Loss

In 2014, I was a mom of two, expecting my third child. I didn’t know that 1 in 4 pregnancies ends in miscarriage. My friend—and future Gathering Hope co-founder—Carol didn’t know that 21,000 babies are stillborn in the United States each year.

We didn’t know baby loss could trigger PTSD in 60 percent of mothers, or that it’s tied to long-term health issues like heart disease, substance abuse, and even suicidality.

We didn’t know, until we were statistics ourselves.

Why It Matters

For loss moms, grief is often made heavier by silence. Shame, trauma, and the feeling that “no one understands” can create invisible barriers to healing. But there is hope, and your partnership makes that possible.

Words fail to describe the gift that Gathering Hope has been to me. To know I am not alone has given me so much strength. My son’s life was acknowledged and celebrated.

Gathering 2026 is a full-day national conference that brings loss moms together to find compassion, community, and hope. Your sponsorship helps create that sacred space of belonging and healing.
