The TEARS Foundation Helps

There are over 1,000 infant deaths in Washington state each year. TEARS lifts a financial burden from newly bereaved families by providing financial assistance to help pay for their baby's funeral expenses. TEARS also offers free ongoing emotional support and bereavement resources.

Additional Information

The TEARS Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that seeks to compassionately lift a financial burden from families who have lost a baby by providing funds to assist with the cost of burial or cremation services. We believe that every baby'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. We also believe that every grieving parent deserves access to ongoing bereavement support. Therefore, we also offer parents comprehensive bereavement care in the form of grief support groups and peer companions.
