In addition to financial assistance, we offer our professional guidance and support to families facing this unimaginable experience. We aim to alleviate the financial burden that follows this devastating loss, and to remind bereaved parents that they are never alone on their journey to honor and grieve their children. As of 2023, Heaven Instead has provided over $100,000 in financial support for families needing assistance paying for funeral services.
Our mission is to provide emotional and financial support used to facilitate healing to those who have suffered the traumatic loss of a child. Our programs range from assisting with bereavement support, education and funeral expenses.
We want to embrace a sense of unity among child loss. A child is a child regardless of age or circumstance. Our mission is to fill the gaps of child loss, providing a place for all families to heal.
Recognizing that traumatic losses extend beyond child loss, individuals and families who are in need of grief and wellness care, are never denied the emotional support they need regardless of affordability or insurance coverage.

Our Goals
To offer financial support for costs associated with the medical issues these babies face, such as:
• Travel expenses (many families must travel out of state to receive proper care for their babies)
• Medical equipment costs not fully covered by insurance plans (e.g. special chairs, walking devices, tracheostomy supplies, nutritional support)
• Specialized memorabilia to memorialize lost, but very-much loved babies (e.g. engraved lockets, urns, glass cremation art, etc.)
Any family experiencing early child loss is welcome to contact us for assistance. Upon the loss of a young child, there is no part of your being that thinks about where to turn for financial or emotional support. We want to be that support.

When the medical and funeral bills start arriving a few weeks later, it is a cold reminder of their reality. While we cannot ease their heartache, we can alleviate the financial stress that follows. Our goal is to raise money through fundraising and sponsorship to help pay for those bills.
