About Us

"You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb."
Psalm 139:13 (NLT)

The Jane Annelle Butterfly Foundation exists to provide compassion, support, and hope to families experiencing stillbirth and infant loss. Through meaningful care packages, remembrance programs, and community support, we honor every baby's life while reminding grieving parents that they are seen, loved, and never alone.

Our Story

The Jane Annelle Butterfly Foundation was created from a mother's love and the belief that no family should have to navigate the heartbreak of stillbirth or infant loss alone. Inspired by Jane Annelle's life, our foundation exists to honor every baby while providing comfort, remembrance, and support to grieving families.

We understand that grief does not end after the hospital. Through thoughtful programs, meaningful gifts, community support, and acts of kindness, we strive to remind parents that their baby's life matters, their grief is real, and they are never alone. Every family deserves to be seen, supported, and surrounded with compassion as they navigate their journey of healing.

Our Mission

The Jane Annelle Butterfly Foundation is dedicated to walking alongside families experiencing pregnancy loss at 15 weeks' gestation and beyond, as well as infant loss through one month of age, by providing compassionate support, meaningful resources, education, and a sense of community. We strive to help grieving families while raising awareness about stillbirth, pregnancy loss, and infant loss. We believe every baby's life matters, every parent's grief deserves recognition, and no family should face loss alone.

Our Vision

We envision a future where every family experiencing stillbirth or pregnancy loss has access to compassionate support, meaningful resources, and a caring community. A future where every baby’s life is honored, every parent’s grief is validated, and awareness leads to greater understanding, hope, and healing.
