NEW to Madeline's Mission- Rising Hope for Healing!

Madeline's Mission is now humbled to offer symbolic birth certificates to families of loss. Often, in the case of miscarriage or still birth losses (or any non-live birth), a birth certificate is not issued, nor is the baby's name listed on medical records. This can feel very invalidating to parents. In recognition of this, Madeline's Mission will provide a digital certificate to bereaved families free of charge- as we truly believe there is no footstep too small to leave an impact on our world. These certificates can be printed, framed, saved or shared.

While this certificate is not a legal document, we hope it brings peace to grieving families.

"Not having anything issued with your baby's name on it leaves you questioning whether or not it happened, and if your child mattered at all. Having this feels so validating, and makes them feel so much more real. I love seeing their name on paper." -Anonymous bereaved parent

While we know the impact of child loss lasts generations, requests must be made by the bereaved parents.
