Bears of Hope
Regular giving for exceptional care and support

Embrace hope with us each month by supporting families after the loss of their baby. We offer six subscription options below, with each one delivering a beautiful Embracing Hope card. These will be posted out each year to yourself, or someone special to you, to acknowledge the baby’s special date or time of year. For as little as $2 per month, we can include your baby in our Garden Of Angels*.

Depending on the subscription you choose, donations received will fund our bears and resources, counselling services, support groups, and grief workshops across Australia.

Please read our terms and conditions before signing up.

*The Garden Of Angels is a monthly recognition of the babies whose birthday, or special date, falls in that month.

We display these on our Facebook page twice a month.

Your support

The majority of our embracing hope contributions fund our early support initiative – our bear giving program, with remaining funds assisting support services such as counselling and support groups.

Each month, we organise and tag up the bears funded from our wonderful supporter’s annual giving ending that previous month. Photos are taken and emailed through to our supporters with a certificate of appreciation.

A thank you is published to our facebook page with a group photo of the bears that will be placed into support packages and donated to families in the future.

Thank you to our wonderful regular supporters for embracing hope with us.
