Memphis Chapter

About Our Chapter

Established in May 2024, we are a motivated group of parents of pregnancy and infant loss babies.  Our mission is to educate the medical community and public about pregnancy and infant loss, raise funds for research, and provide support to families who are missing their babies.  We believe that through greater awareness and empowered pregnancies, many of these tragedies can be prevented.  We strive to ultimately lower the number of stillbirths in the Memphis area and beyond.  Our service area includes the Memphis, Jackson, Cordova, and Bartlett areas. If you are located near us and would like to learn more about our chapter, please contact us.

National Resources and Supports

Star Legacy Foundation offers many supports and resources. Below, you will find some of our highlighted resources and support.

We offer free peer-to-peer support where we match you with someone who has tragically had a similar experience with loss.  If you want to learn more, be matched with a peer or become a trained peer yourself, click the link above.

We offer many free, virtual support groups.  Learn more or register by clicking the link above.

We offer a wide selection of printed materials such as bereavement resources, support group cards, safe pregnancy support and more. All of our resources are completely free and ship free as well.

The Pregnancy Research Project is a research study bringing together patients and researchers to advance knowledge and discover preventions and treatments for poor pregnancy outcomes. Please consider giving the gift of data and becoming a participant.

Our Stillbirth Scorecards take the CDC stillbirth data and organizes it into a one page document you can share to raise awareness about the stillbirth crisis.

It would be an honor if we remembered your beloved baby alongside you.  Honor your babies with you by adding them as a star or creating a memorial page in their memory.
