The Bonnie Babes Foundation helps to save babies lives and counsel families through this extreme hardship.
Welcome to our website. If you have lost a baby we are very sorry for your loss, if you have infertility issues or a premmie baby the Bonnie Babes Foundation can help you. You are not alone.
The Bonnie Babes Foundation is a non-profit volunteer based charity which is established for the health and well-being of families. Sadly one in every four pregnancies ends in a loss from miscarriage and stillbirth. Over 17,000 babies are born prematurely, many of them often struggling for life.
The Bonnie Babes Foundation was established in 1994 to raise vital public awareness and important funds for medical research and equipment and to counsel families after the loss of a baby.
The Definition of a miscarriage is birth prior to the 20th week of pregnancy. One in every four pregnancies result in a loss. Preterm birth is defined by birth before the 37th week of pregnancy. One in every 10 babies is born prematurely.
Stillbirth is the loss of a baby in utero after 20 weeks, prior to or during birth. The baby is born ’still’, showing no signs of life.
Fundraising
Bonnie Babes Foundation relies heavily on the support and generosity of individuals to continue providing free grief counselling services and to raise money for medical research and the purchase of medical equipment.
