About I Am The Face Campaign (Scroll Down to see FAQ)
Every single day in the US, 2,000 women lose a baby to pregnancy/infant loss. That’s 700,000 a year, a quarter of every female in this country. So why does no one talk about it?
(2,000 real faces of pregnancy/infant loss…those affected in just ONE day)
I AM THE FACE is Faces of Loss, Faces of Hope‘s annual pregnancy/infant loss awareness campaign. Through it, we are “putting a face” on miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss. We are sharing our faces, and declaring to the world, “I am not ashamed to talk about my baby.”
The goal of the I AM THE FACE campaign is simple: to spread awareness of pregnancy/infant loss, and raise support for those who are affected by it.
Donations will go to Faces of Loss, Faces of Hope, a national 501c3 nonprofit organization with a mission of providing support and resources for parents who have lost a child through miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss.
What is I Am The Face?
This site started as an awareness and fundraising campaign for 2010′s National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day on October 15th, 2010. Our goal was to get 2,000 faces up on the site to represent the 2,000 women who lose a baby every single day in the US alone, which we were able to accomplish! In 2011, we are simplifying things a bit, and rather than asking people to upload photos, we are asking survivors of pregnancy/infant loss to grab a profile badge to help raise awareness, and donate $1 to help support the real faces of pregnancy/infant loss.
