New Jersey

If you have found us because you have experienced a loss, our hearts go out to you. We welcome you to reach out and join us as we honor babies gone too soon. If you would like to speak with someone or need financial assistance fill out our online application form and someone who can help will be in touch.

Over 1,100 babies die each year in New Jersey and there is limited government funds available to support bereaved families who need to make final arrangements for their baby and ongoing support to rebuild their lives. Together we can support these families and make a difference in New Jersey.

Help your Community

Anyone who is interested in supporting bereaved families in New Jersey is welcome and encouraged to attend one of these upcoming events, to visit the Center for Child Loss, or to apply to become a VolunTEAR with this form.

Bradley Beach Rock & Walk

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the TEARS Walk in New Jersey on Sunday.

To every family who walked in memory of a child, and to every team who showed up in love—we honor you. These photos reflect just a glimpse of the connection and care shared that day.

Special thanks to Paige and the Sean Green family for helping bring this event to life. We’re grateful for every step, every story, and every child remembered.

If you’re interested in volunteering or helping shape next year’s walk, we’d love to hear from you. Feel free to message us at admin@thetearsfoundation.org

We carry your children with us, always.
