SUPPORTING PREGNANCY & INFANT LOSS.

OCTOBER 1 - 31, 2021

Pregnancy and Infant Loss touches the lives of 1 in 4 families in Canada. The Baby Lauryn Elizabeth Project and Wings of Hope Campaign raises funds to support families on the Burin Peninsula during their time of loss.

Thank you to everyone who purchased the 1st Annual "Wings of Hope" butterfly.

**This year's uniquely designed butterfly has sold out.**

The 1st Annual "Wings of Hope" butterfly was locally handcrafted by local artists, Denise & John Withers of Shack Wacky Glass, Creston North, Marystown. Funds raised from this beautiful pink and blue fused-glass butterfly will help ensure the continuation of programs and services for families experiencing Pregnancy & Infant Loss on the Burin Peninsula.

The Baby Lauryn Elizabeth Project has been supporting local families experiencing Pregnancy & Infant Loss. Thanks to donations from local families and community partners, this program has provided:

Infant Loss Kits, Memory Boxes and Angel Gowns, which are given to families at their time of loss.
A Cuddle Cot, which will give families on of the most precious gifts: time to grieve.
Artwork entitled, "The Springtime of Life" on the Nursery Room windows of the BPHCC. This painting, commissioned by artist, Jim Miles, personifies new life and creation, honors pregnancy and infant loss, and celebrates rainbow babies.

CAring for our communities.
