Love Basket Ministry

The Love Basket ministry began as an outreach to others who suffer the loss of a child.  Early in our grief and loss, we were given 'love gifts' by others intending to bring us comfort, hope and healing.  They did! 

Through those small gifts of compassion we learned how very important it is to share one's experiences in grief and loss.  Like a chain, each link is vital to the whole.  We are simply one link in the chain of love being expressed to others.

You can help suffering parents by making a donation, or by purchasing a basket for a someone you know who is suffering the death of a child.
