​Request A Pierced Companion

Are you a parent who has lost a baby and looking for 1-on-1 support?

Through our matching process, we partner individuals seeking support with a Pierced Companion — another parent who has lost a baby and shared similar grief. These one-on-one relationships inspire hope and offer the chance to ask personal questions and receive support from someone who is uniquely familiar with the experience. 

The service is absolutely free and helps anyone touched by any type of baby loss, at any stage, at any age, living anywhere in the world.

Pierced Forever services are accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We will work with you to accommodate any special needs you may have, including individuals with speaking or hearing impairments. We work with these individuals on a case-by-case basis to make sure we are able to provide the highest level of service, whether it be via online chat, text message, or other special circumstances. If you need special assistance, please e-mail us and we will work with you to get you the support you need.

Please register online by filling out the form below. One of our Connection Specialists will be in touch with you shortly after your information is received. All information is kept confidential and is never shared with anyone except your match.
​
Because of the personal nature of this program, we ask that you do not register for another individual, unless they have specifically asked for your help with the registration process and agreed to their desire to participate in our program.

Please note that some of the personal questions we ask is strictly so we can best match you and give you the most positive, loving experience possible.
    ​Terms of Use

    Pierced Forever Foundation (“PFF”) is a nonprofit organization that provides one-on-one grief support by connecting parents who have lost a child to another seeking support (each a “Support Seeker”) with a volunteer-companion who have experienced something similar and donates their time and energy to PFF and to those seeking support (each a “Pierced Companion”). PFF’s one-on-one support gives each person seeking support a chance to ask personal questions and express their worries and frustrations, while receiving encouragement and support from someone who is uniquely familiar with the challenges that they may face.
