​Join our community of volunteers to help bring
compassion and support to bereaved parents.

​As we continue to expand and offer our services in more hospitals, we find Rachel's Gift is in need of compassionate individuals who share our desire to support bereaved families. You can help continue our programs through volunteerism. We served nearly 1,000 families in 2018, over 1,100 in 2019, nearly 1,400 in 2020, and over 1,300 in 2021. We anticipate that we will serve 1,500 families in 2022. In giving of your time and yourself, you can assist in impacting the lives of the families we serve through several different areas of service.

​On the first Tuesday of each month, volunteers gather at our office in McDonough, Georgia to help with various needs between 9:00am and 4:00pm. Activities usually include: organizing donations received, making boxes for hospitals, preparing nurse training materials, preparing miscarriage cards for Emergency Departments / Surgical Centers, and preparing for special events. Nursing students are welcome to join us to add to their service and outreach hours.

We host annual events to benefit Rachel's Gift. We could always use extra helping hands to ensure things run smoothly and attendees enjoy themselves. ​Our annual Angel Dash 5K is held every October and is our biggest event. Visit our Upcoming Events page to see which events you might be interested in helping with, then email us at info@rachelsgift.org.

​CROCHET OR KNIT
As part of our Keepsake Box Program, we accept donated handmade baby blankets. Our boxes are available at our partnering hospitals and are offered to parents when they experience the loss of a baby due to miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, birth defects, stillbirth, SIDS, or other causes. We anticipate a need for at least 1,600 blankets in 2022. We find ourselves in constant need of baby blankets. If you are interested in participating in this program, all we ask is that you follow the size and color guidelines posted here.  


​SEW
​As part of our Wedding to Burial Gown Program, we accept donated wedding dresses that volunteers transform into burial gowns for angel babies. We are currently in need of more volunteer seamstresses or tailors to make the program a reality. If you are interested in participating, please visit this page for guidelines and our preferred (simple!) patterns.
