In loving memory...

By Rebecca Valeri

I do not wish for my donation to appear on the memory wall.

Every little life matters and deserves to be celebrated

We created this page for Say Their Name Day to raise funds for Sands and Red Nose so they can continue their important work supporting bereaved families across Australia.

If you can support my fundraiser, you will be helping to bring care and comfort to families when they need it most.

Every dollar raised helps support bereaved families by making sure every family has access to the information and networks they need to move forward and rebuild their lives, now and in the future. 

That means timely access to information resources, an understanding voice on the end of the phone, and an ongoing connection with other families through support groups and remembrance activities.

So please, help us raise much-needed funds to ensure every bereaved family has access to the support they need, for as long as they need it.

It means the world to us that we can do this in memory of Mateo. 

Thank you and God Bless.

This actually comes at a perfect time as it was this time last year I found out I was expecting. I can’t tell you how excited we were to be pregnant especially after a miscarriage. 

We couldn’t wait to find out what we were having. Deep down I knew I was having a Boy and then it was confirmed, a baby boy was growing inside me! The excitement of what was to come was just unbearable. I have wanted to be a mum for long time and it was finally happening for us.

We had some complications but baby was doing well and with weekly scans to check his progress our minds were at ease. Until the day there was significantly less movement. I went to the hospital due to complications he need to be delivered immediately, I was only 26 weeks. 

Mateo was born sleeping into this world  at 12:13pm at just over 1kg. Our little angel looked so peaceful and perfect and that is how I’ll remember him forever.

It truly is unbearable to lose a child and would like to do whatever we can to support other bereaved families. 

Thank you to my Supporters
