Remembering our Babies on my Birthday

$455 of $350 goal
Given by 13 generous donors in 13 days

We have been blessed with support through the recent loss of our second baby, we want to make sure other can be supported too

Manawatu / Whanganui

In Lieu of birthday presents, or just because you can, please consider donating to Sands New Zealand. This is a volunteer organisation helping to support parents through the loss of a baby.

Penny and I lost our first baby in 2016 at 7-8 weeks and our second Baby last Christmas (2020) at the 12 week stage (though we may have lost her earlier and hormones hid the fact). We have been so well supported throughout by friends and family, but there are so many people who feel isolated and are missing the sort of support that we had, and that Sands offer.

So, again, please consider supporting them this year, all donations to Sands are eligible for a tax credit in NZ - not essential, but thought you should know.

Sands offer support that we can't, and they are volunteers with limited resources
