The Angel Box
Free Infant burial garment & items
Kennedy's Angel Gowns packages and delivers our beautiful handmade items to help bereaved parents face pregnancy and infant loss and prepare for the burial of their baby. The Angel Box features a gorgeous burial garment, mommy & me bracelets, and crocheted items.
When this tragedy hits, your time is limited and local stores rarely have an option for a burial garment that would fit appropriately. Our infant burial garments are handmade from wedding gowns and available in micro wraps, preemie, and small to large sizes. We select the perfect infant garment based on weight, gender, and availability.
Kennedy's Angel Gowns delivers or ships the Angel Box, and Heather Wilson offers comfort as a Bereavement Doula and counselor, all at no charge.
You're not alone, and Kennedy's Angel Gowns here is for you. Our simple Angel Box is our gift to make the final memories with your child as beautiful as they should be.
Who We Help
Kennedy's Angel Gowns serves any bereaved family faced with pregnancy and infant loss throughout Virginia and the United States. Our list of resources is also highly recommended.

The Cooling Unit
Helping hospitals give the gift of time
Kennedy's Angel Gowns raises funds to donate a cooling device such as the Cenotaph Cradle, CuddleCot™ or Caring Cradle to local hospitals. These are a cooling system that allows parents to keep their infants near and gives more time together. You can help us equip more hospitals by making any donation to the Cooling Unit Campaign to give bereaved parents this precious time with their infant.
A Caring Cradle was donated for the first-ever Butterfly Room in 2019. The dedicated bereavement room for patients at Norfolk General Hospital was funded through Kennedy's Angel Gowns by donors like you. Imagine if every hospital in this country had a dedicated Butterfly Room equipped with a cooling unit for parents grieving from pregnancy and infant loss!
The NBC television series New Amsterdam featured a Cuddle Cot™ in an episode on November 12, 2019. It has brought more awareness of pregnancy and infant loss as well as the importance of a cooling device.
