🦋 NORTH TEXAS GIVING DAY IS HERE! 🦋

We may be a small organization, but we have some pretty big dreams for the families and communities we serve. This year, Butterfly Bridge Foundation is proud to participate in North Texas Giving Day, one of the biggest days of giving for nonprofits across North Texas! ✨

⏱ When: Thursday, September 17, 2026 (TODAY!!)

🔎 How to support us:

🦋 Why Butterfly Bridge Foundation?

Every child leaves a story worth remembering.

Our mission is to turn grief into grace and memory into legacy by honoring children gone too soon, supporting the families who carry their memory forward, and creating meaningful opportunities for remembrance, connection, and healing.

Through family support, resources for grieving families and first responders, community programs, and our vision for a permanent sanctuary and memorial space, we are working to make sure these children and their stories are never forgotten.

But none of this happens without people who believe in what we are building.

Whether you give $5, $25, $100, start a fundraiser, or simply share our page with someone you know, every act of support matters.

This North Texas Giving Day, we hope you’ll help us continue building something meaningful for families experiencing unimaginable loss and help us honor the beautiful lives that deserve to be remembered for generations to come. 🦋

Thank you for believing in Butterfly Bridge Foundation and for continuing to stand beside the families we serve. ✨

North Texas Giving Day is Communities Foundation of Texas’ largest community investment initiative. 100% of each donation goes to nonprofits.

💜 An Update on Lilah Bailey 💜

Several months ago, our community came together in an incredible way to support Lilah during an unimaginable time in her life. Today, we are so grateful to share a little update with everyone who donated, prayed, shared her story, and supported her family.

Lilah is doing great in school and continues to make progress both physically and emotionally. She is now only under light physical restrictions and continues to attend therapy as she heals.

And, of course, Bobby is never far away. 🐾💜 Bobby is Lilah’s 10 year old girl dog, and Lilah will absolutely correct you if you call her a “he.” 😂 Lilah says Bobby is the only piece she has left from her family, and she continues to bring her so much comfort.

Because of your generosity, Butterfly Bridge Foundation was able to place more than $60,000 into a trust established specifically for Lilah’s benefit, helping ensure that the support this community gave her will continue making a difference for years to come.

Her family asked us to share their continued gratitude with everyone who supported Lilah. Every donation, prayer, share, and act of kindness reminded them that they were not alone during the most difficult time of their lives.

We hope these photos bring a smile to everyone who helped surround this little girl with so much love.

From Lilah’s family and all of us at Butterfly Bridge Foundation, thank you.
