ABOUT BRIDGET’S BUNNIES

Bridget’s Bunnies Pregnancy and Infant Loss Foundation works to ensure no one endures pregnancy or infant loss alone.

FUNDRAISING

Funds raised meet parents in their moment of crisis through our comfort kit program and further down the road through our Little Loss Libraries, Grief Greeting Cards, and local pregnancy and infant loss efforts. By encouraging others to donate, you give them the opportunity to join our mission of uniting a community of support, education, and advocacy for individuals and families who have experienced loss.
