By: Cara Terreri | 0 Comments
October 15 is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. On this day and throughout the month of October, we raise awareness for research and to support those affected by pregnancy loss and infant death. For parents and families who have experienced loss, remembrance and grief is an everyday reality. This year, we encourage you to take time to support an organization by donating and sharing. Donate what you can to help support research and/or families, then encourage others to support by sharing about the organization on your social media accounts. There are many organizations that help support families through loss; the following are five we have identified for you to support by clicking on the links below.
