Volunteering Oportunities

Nonprofit Overview

Mission: The TEARS Foundation seeks to compassionately lift a financial burden from families who have lost a child by providing funds to assist with the cost of burial or cremation services. We believe that every child’s life deserves to be honored and memorialized in accordance with the grieving parents’ wishes and are committed to helping bereaved parents with this experience. Every grieving parent deserves access to ongoing bereavement support, so we also offer parents comprehensive bereavement care in the form of grief support groups and peer companions.

After my son Owen died at just 18 days old I was able to find emotional help through this foundation. I have also gone on to do volunteer work for them, which has been incredibly healing for me. The Chapter leaders are amazing and work so hard to help all of the families referred their services.
