The Giving Tree
An Annual Tradition Supporting miscarriage, stillbirth & Infant Loss survivors
Why Your gift Matters
Pause to think about the women in your life. Your mom, your sister, your child’s teacher, your boss, your patient or the woman who remembers your order at your favorite coffee shop.
Miscarriage & infant loss is more common – and more isolating – than many realize.
21,000 stillbirths occur every year in the United States
1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage
44 miscarriages occur every minute, worldwide
60% of perinatal loss survivors meet criteria for PTSD diagnosis
1 in 4 endure moderate to severe anxiety
1 in 10 experience moderate to severe depression.
Even today, stigma still exists surrounding baby loss. Bereaved mothers often experience disenfranchised grief and lack support.
CHANGING THE STORY OF BABY LOSS WITH YOUR SUPPORT
For loss moms, grief is often made heavier by silence. Shame, trauma, and the feeling “no one understands” can create invisible barriers to healing.
But there is hope, and your partnership makes that possible.
Gathering Hope is a movement empowering women to grieve and celebrate the lives they lost together, alongside other mothers. We help baby loss survivors overcome loneliness & isolation so they can find healing in community.
How Does Gathering Hope Support Pregnancy Loss Survivors?
Our programming takes shape in a few different ways, most notably our annual loss mom conference, which is a purposefully intimate & transformational experience just for miscarriage, stillbirth & infant loss survivors.
National Loss Mom Conference (In-Person & Nationwide Host Sites)
Email & Social Media Support
Beyond Words Workshop, Education & Advocacy
A Community That Understands!
Help Us Make 2026 a Year of Hope
Each tier in the Giving Tree represents another step toward building a comprehensive support network for survivors of pregnancy and infant loss.
Together, we can grow a network of compassion and support that loss moms can rely on. Here’s how you can make a difference:
Donate generously. As long as miscarriage, stillbirth and infant loss are a reality, funding is essential to supporting loss moms in their healing journey and the programs we offer at Gathering Hope.
Expand the network. Personal introductions are powerful. Who needs to know about Gathering Hope? Is there someone in your life who cares deeply about supporting grieving families? Sharing our mission, or inviting someone to join you in giving, can multiply the impact in ways you may never see, but will support loss moms in a deeply personal way.
Pray. Lift up the moms we serve, the volunteers who walk alongside them, and the continued growth of Gathering Hope’s mission. Your prayers matter!
Whether you adopt all three tasks, a combination of two, or simply focus on one, we are grateful for the way you choose to show up for loss moms. We are strengthened by your commitment to this mission. Join us today and create a lasting impact for these families!
Honor a baby’s legacy with a Special Tribute
All donations over $50 made in memory of a baby will be honored with a personalized Christmas ornament, which will be placed on the Giving Tree in the Gathering Hope office.
Stories of Hope
For over a decade, we’ve created a space for loss moms to heal and connect through shared experiences. Your support helps bring light to those facing unimaginable loss.
Your Donation at Work
Every gift adds to the Gathering Hope Giving Tree, increasing our capacity to provide resources, comfort, and connection to bereaved mothers.
Thank you for believing in this mission and in the moms we serve. We couldn’t do this without you. Your generosity means so much more than you know!
