Our Mission

“Most people only dream of angels. We held one in our arms.”

The loss of a baby is a grief unlike any other. It is a lifelong journey filled with heartbreak, love, questions, and remembrance. Every family's experience is unique, and the emotions that follow miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss can change from one moment to the next. No one should have to walk that journey alone.

Adalynn's Gift provides thoughtfully prepared memory boxes filled with meaningful keepsakes that help families create precious memories with their baby during their hospital stay and preserve those memories for years to come.

Founded in loving memory of Adalynn Marian Peregrim, our mission is to provide every hospital in Connecticut with compassionate, high-quality memory boxes so that families experiencing the unimaginable loss of a baby have the opportunity to honor their child's life with dignity, love, and lasting remembrance. Every box is carefully assembled by volunteers and supporters who understand the importance of saying,

Your baby matters. Your memories matter. You are not alone.
