YOUR MONTHLY GIFT PROVIDES HOPE AND HEALING.
Even though so many of us have experienced pregnancy or infant loss, or know someone who has, it is a loss that exists in the shadows.
Bereaved parents feel isolated and alone. But together, we can shine a light on pregnancy and infant loss, helping others to live a life that holds both grief and joy. When you join The Lighthouse, you’ll be joining a community of people who are passionate about supporting bereaved parents during their greatest moments of need.
no one is ever prepared to experience a loss of this magnitude.
The heartbreak of pregnancy and infant loss is unimaginable. It leaves parents shattered, lost in grief, and yearning for relief from the unbearable weight of their pain. In the midst of this devastation, they often ask, “How do I survive this?”
At RTZ HOPE, we walk alongside parents in their darkest moments, offering a lifeline of compassion, understanding, and hope. Since 2020, our virtual services have provided over 1,500 families with guidance when life feels out of control and every step feels impossible. Since 2014, our in-person retreats have held space for over 400 women, creating sacred moments of connection and healing in the wake of profound loss.
Grief has no timeline. Whether their loss is fresh or decades in the past, we empower parents to seek the paths to healing that feel right for them. With every resource, every retreat, every act of support, we are here to remind grieving families: You are not alone. Your pain matters. And healing is possible.
Will you join us in bringing light to the darkest moments?
We come alongside anyone who would otherwise suffer in silence.
We believe in the power of collaboration and commitment to change the culture of baby loss.
When you join The Lighthouse and become a recurring donor, you’re providing hope and healing to those who need it most.
Your monthly gift will contribute to our efforts of:
SUPPORT PROGRAMS
Our workshops, virtual support groups, and holistic healing retreats create a safe space for bereaved parents to connect with the child they have lost and discover a community with whom they can find meaning, healing, and transformation.
PROVIDER OUTREACH & EDUCATION
The majority of trauma for bereaved parents often occurs in a medical setting due to lack of education, resources, or training. Our provider programming helps to mitigate trauma and future mental health impacts on parents.
MENTAL HEALTH & COMMUNITY IMPACT
The emotional toll of loss can significantly affect mental health, impacting day-to-day functioning, workplace performance, family dynamics, and entire communities. Our support provides a lifeline while offering a foundation of care and healing for both the individual and their broader network.
“RTZ Hope helped me heal in ways I never thought possible. Beyond therapy and virtual groups, their resources and support gave me the tools to process the loss of my daughter and turn my grief into acceptance. I had been isolated, unable to function after keeping my pregnancy and loss a secret, but RTZ’s retreat provided a transformative experience. I connected with a community of empathetic women who understood my pain, and RTZ’s approach felt deeply personal, non-judgmental, and inclusive. They truly meet each individual where they are, offering thoughtful, tailored support for everyone, no matter their background or circumstances."
