Rebecca Jane Foundation Details
There comes a moment in many people's lives when something so profoundly devastating happens – the death of a baby. The family are going through immense pain and suffering and then the unthinkable happens, they have to plan a funeral. A family needs to be able to say goodbye to their angel baby. It helps to set them on the difficult grief journey with something positive to look back on.However, having to pay for a baby's funeral is out of the reach of some, which leaves them in the position of either having to borrow the money from friends or family, which again creates more anguish for the family, or leaving a bad debt. It is tragic enough for a baby to die, let alone to not have the financial resources to have a funeral when they have had to say goodbye, before they have even had the chance to say hello, or have had their precious baby die before they have even celebrated their first birthday. Robyn O'Connell founded RJF in gratitude for the help she received when Rebecca died. Not knowing where they would find the money to pay for a funeral, a beacon in the darkness arrived and told her not to worry, they would take care of the funeral costs. It was like being given a million dollars. Fast forward 38 years, Robyn decided that on 7/8/2018, what would have been Rebecca Jane's 40th birthday, she would launch a registered charity in her daughter's honour. Two years later, RJF has already helped almost 60 families, providing as simple as a coffin or celebrant through to a complete cremation service when the family had no means to do so. RJF want to be able to help more families and with your support, they will be able to do that. If you wish to make a donation, you can do that through our website, or if you would like to be a regular contributor, please contact Robyn on 0425 726 246.
