We help grieving families heal after losing babies during late stage miscarriage or stillbirth.
Our mission is to ease memorial cost burdens for families who otherwise would not be able to afford to honor their children in the way they desire. We aim to promote healing by using direct donations to our pending 501(c)(3) non-profit organization or facilitating sponsorship of individuals who wish to complete exercise endeavors as a means of healing.
More about GABE’s Grace
GABE is the name of our son we lost in 2016. The traumatic experience of losing a baby as a late stage miscarriage (more than 3 months of pregnancy, less than 24 weeks) or stillbirth (more than 24 weeks) can render many questions, as it did for us:
What options are there for a baby memorial?
Is it appropriate to have a funeral?
Are there others who have experienced this?
Seven years later, we reflect on what happened, who helped us, and what factors made it possible to see the other side of the darkness. To us, it was the ecosystem of support from family and friends, bolstered by a focus on physical exercise to heal.
This is the premise of GABE’s Grace:
Grief, Assistance, Belonging, Exercise.
