We have experienced multiple baby losses through miscarriage, ectopic, and the full term stillbirth of our son Tivis. We found that the initial and ongoing care of our family through those losses were minimal at best. We never want mom, dad, and family members to feel isolated during and after the devasting loss of their baby. You not only lose a baby, but time, memories, and innocence.

We created The Tivis Project to bring a little bit of comfort through Hope Totes to families as they grieve. The Hope Totes are filled with items to help with physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, as well as items of keepsake to remind them of their babies. We include items for siblings such as keepsake baby blankets, books, journals. All items are curated based on the age of the baby's siblings.

We felt that we needed to have ongoing support for families as they walk their grief journey. For families that would like ongoing support, we are heavily active and available on social media. We created The Card Project and mail out encouraging cards throughout the year. We have partnered with Creed's Legacy to create The Tivis, Creed, and Friends RAOK Project (random acts of kindness). The RAOK Project creates business cards with baby's name. The cards are attached to random acts of kindness to honor and remember their baby's name. For families local to The Tivis Project, we have ongoing projects for families to participate in, such as painting pots and planting flowers in them. As we continue to walk the grief journey with families, we will evaluate the comfort and support needs and create additional Projects to support families.
