These books are given to families experiencing pregnancy and infant loss in the hospital. They get the chance to read to their baby during the short time together and make that memory. In Nolan’s honor, we are holding this book drive to benefit the Adalyn Rose Foundation (ARF), so that other families can have that same precious moment.

Every book you send carries his name and our family’s love into the arms of another family that needs it most. We are so grateful for everyone who chooses to remember him this way.

About the Adalyn Rose Foundation

The Adalyn Rose Foundation (ARF) is a nonprofit organization based in Reading, Pennsylvania, dedicated to supporting families who have experienced infant loss and pregnancy complications. ARF provides comfort packages, resources, and community to families walking through some of the most difficult days of their lives.

Books donated through this drive go directly into ARF’s comfort baskets, delivered to families at hospitals and care centers throughout the region. These gifts give parents the chance to read to their baby during the short time they have together, and to keep that memory close forever.
