A note from our founder:

After Maddy died, we noticed that a certain butterfly would make her appearance to myself and our family. This was always a magical moment, and these moments always came at the right time. We decided one of her signs was a butterfly and for her first birthday, we hosted a butterfly release. Each year we did the same and when friends and family heard about this, they started to gather. Some would bring food, others a gift in memory of Maddy and these magical moments started to grow.

We decided that this would be a program, and maybe just maybe our purpose for this program is to activate hope in the lives of children as they experience Maddy’s birthday party. There is beauty in the transformation, and there is no shame in parenting your child who died. Our hope is that today, you will find peace in the quiet reflection, a shared love and togetherness, and a reminder that even in the face of profound loss, love, and compassion could create something beautiful.

Love & Light,

Margaret & Glenn Pilon
