About

Rainbows for Makenna was created out of love and grief.  After two missed miscarriages, Makenna was born at 22w6d. She lived for 4 days and left an immeasurable impact on her family. 

After experiencing recurrent loss, we quickly realized how lonely and isolating pregnancy and infant loss can be. Families leave the hospital empty handed, often with a box instead of a baby. They are left with broken hearts trying to navigate a world that keeps spinning when theirs has crumbled beneath them.

Rainbows for Makenna aims to change that.

Through the support of our donors, we support families through all walks of life after loss. Whether your loss was yesterday or twenty-five years ago, your grief matters. 

And so does your precious baby. 

This organization was built on parents that get it. We have lived the unimaginable and want to walk alongside you and your grief. We serve families that have experienced the death of their babies during pregnancy and/or infancy by honoring their babies, providing tangible resources, online support, remembrance initiatives, mom-focused healing retreats, and so much more. 

​

Because love doesn't end when a life ends.

And neither should support.
