You Made Me Mom and Amy and Adam Balentine are pleased to raise funds for the tenth annual Gift of Time fundraiser. You Made Me Mom is a support group for the bereaved mother, founded by Amy in 2015. The Gift of Time campaign lasts seven days and twenty-two minutes – the same duration of Amy and Adam’s son Simon’s brief but mighty life – from May 14 at 9:55pm to May 21 at 10:17pm. This year marks the 10th anniversary of Simon’s week of life. Last year, donors gave funds to produce this new film celebrating Simon's life - thank you!
The goal of this year’s fundraiser is to support You Made Me Mom’s operational expenses and to support our 2025 Bereaved Mother's Day celebration service. Your tax-free donation will be processed through our non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, You Made Me Mom.
You Made Me Mom is a support group for bereaved mothers who have lost babies during pregnancy or infancy. The organization has five chapters in the USA and Canada, and one that meets online. The support groups gather monthly to discuss moms’ losses of their babies and to process their walk with grief. Your donation gives the bereaved mother TIME to process her grief with other bereaved mothers who understand and can relate to the immense pain of miscarriage, stillbirth and infant death.
