Possum Portraits - Commemorating Perinatal Loss


Every day in Australia, 6 babies are stillborn. 2 more die as a result of neonatal complications. In our affluent, resourceful nation, a miscarriage still occurs every 3,5 minutes.

Our mission is to ensure that every parent has access to a worthy keepsake of their child; one which manages to support and comfort them on their grief journey. To this end we provide a bespoke grief support tool for loss parents, which takes the shape of a commemorative portrait drawing of their baby.

All portraits are crafted by professional artists and designed in concert with parents. This ensures that every portrait embodies the vision they have for honouring and remembering their child.

We aim to engender a society in which pregnancy and baby loss is less socially stigmatised and parents do not have to grieve silently. A society in which loss parents are seen as legitimate parents, and a society which seeks to be part of the solution, not an obstacle in trying to recover from loss.

By contributing to our target of raising $11,000 you will fund materials, drawing and mailing out of 50 keepsake portraits for Australian families.

We warmly invite you to embark on this journey with us.
