• Our Mission: Give Hope

    If you are here today because you've lost your baby, we are so sorry.

    But you are not alone.....you and your precious baby are dearly loved.

    Gemma's Hope is a nonprofit in North Carolina dedicated to helping parents after pregnancy and infant loss. We believe that every baby deserves to be remembered, and that their families deserve the utmost respect and care when it comes to creating lasting memories in the hospital and beyond. We source grief books & keepsake materials to donate to hospitals to help make families' experience just a little easier & more comforting.

    As we honor and remember all our babies gone too soon, we hold space in our hearts for yours.

    Please reach out if you need support or would like to grab a coffee and chat.

    "I am so touched about [our Book Cart placement] tonight. Truly was so special and something i didn't even know i needed. I love that we got to honor her and help others in a way I wish I would have had. What you're doing is SO special and I am so excited I get to be a part of this for Kinley and for future families."
