  • About Us

    Hope Still Lives Project started in a community of loss mothers. Each of our families has endured the pain of losing one (or more) babies.

    Collectively, we have over eight angels: Ephraim Cali, Braeden Christopher Poole, Caleb Andrew Longfield, Colton Michael Killiany, Peanut Killiany, Logan Richard Horval, Xander Lucas Martin and Jayden Paul Wehrley.

    Our angels fuel our purpose and give meaning to this non-profit for each of us.

    Hope Still Lives Project officially registered as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in June 2022. We are driven to support families within our Northeast Ohio communities who have faced pregnancy loss as we have.

  • Our Mission

    To raise awareness of pregnancy and infant loss within our Northeast Ohio communities and local healthcare providers, as well as to support families in the same area who have experienced the loss of a child during pregnancy, delivery, or infancy through providing resources, hosting community events, and individual support.

  • Our Vision

    We envision a healthcare community that is prepared to support families through resources to help navigate pregnancy and infant loss. It is our hope that these families can find support and solace in our organization. We strive to provide a safe space for wherever their grief journey takes them.
