ABOUT BRIDGET'S BUNNIES
Bridget's Bunnies Pregnancy and Infant Loss Foundation works to ensure no individual or family endures pregnancy or infant loss alone. In memory of Bridget, who was born still just one day shy of her due date, comfort kits are provided to grieving parents throughout Simcoe Muskoka and the surrounding area who experience a loss. Comfort kits include letters to the parents, memory makers, and resources to provide gentle direction and compassion.
FUNDRAISING
Funds raised meet parents in their moment of crisis through our comfort kit program. By encouraging others to donate, you give them the opportunity to join our community of support and further our mission of uniting a community of support, education, and advocacy for individuals and families who have experienced loss.
Your personal fundraising page will automatically be created with your event registration. We encourage you to customize and share this page with your community.
