assisting grieving families with the loss of their baby

Treasured Hearts has been blessed by an empathetic and compassionate community with donations and an outpouring of love to those in need.  With this generosity and the assistance of the phenomenal staff at Lakeridge Memorial designers, we have assisted 15 families to lay their precious babies to rest. Black and White photography packages have been provided for 98% of the families at University Medical Center in the FBC who have experienced an infant loss. 

Additionally, we have purchased 75 “Shining Star” bears that include a star registry and angel pins to give to each patient who has experienced an infant loss.  The “Treat Yourself!” fashion show was a huge success with the support of “Candy Wrapper”, “Texas Tech Apparel Design”, “Cowamungus”,  “Bakery Creations”, Chris Brock, Daniel Markham, the expert staff at the LHUCA, to mention just a few of our supporters. 

We have our second annual fundraising Gala planned for  June 25th at Caprock Winery.  If you are interested in receiving more information about the event or organization, please email me! 

Much Love and Blessings,  Jenny Hensler
