๐Ÿ“š Bereavement Book Cart Donation Coordinator for Hospitals & Families ๐Ÿ’œ

 

What Youโ€™ll Do:

This is a role at the very heart of what we do at Gemma's Hope!  As our Donation Matchmaker, youโ€™ll play a crucial role in coordinating the delivery of Bereavement Book Carts to hospitals in need. Youโ€™ll be the friendly bridge between hospitals seeking resources and families honoring their babies by sponsoring a cart in their memory.

You donโ€™t need to prepare the carts yourself (unless you want to!), but we need someone to manage the planning, coordination, and communication that keeps this program running smoothly. Youโ€™ll hear incredible stories from bereaved families and nurses, ensuring that every cart finds its way to a hospital that truly needs it.

What Youโ€™ll Really Be Doing:

๐Ÿ“ Connecting families & hospitals โ€“ You'll help manage the logistics of our Book Cart donation process:  Families raise the funds for the Book Cart & its supplies + a hospital in need of perinatal bereavement resources receives it.
๐Ÿ’Œ Communicating with all parties โ€“ Contacting the hospital, communicating expectations, discovering needs, & calculating the total needed to be fundraised.
๐Ÿ“… Managing logistics & deadlines โ€“ Keeping track of total fundraised, submitting list of needed supplies for the cart, & finding a common date for the family to meet at the hospital to celebrate the dedication of the cart in-person.
๐Ÿ’œ Making an impact โ€“ Every cart placed means a grieving family gets meaningful support, resources, and memory keepsakes when their baby has died in the hospital.

Ideal For:

โœจ Detail-oriented organizers or project managers who love keeping things running smoothly.
โœจ Strong communicators who can juggle multiple contacts and deadlines.
โœจ Anyone familiar with healthcare/hospital environments (a plus, but not required!).
โœจ Compassionate individuals who want to make a difference for families facing loss.

Why Youโ€™ll Love This Role:

โณ Flexible & Remote โ€“ Work from anywhere, on your own schedule.  You'll have access to a separate email account to manage things in.
๐Ÿ’ก Meaningful Connections โ€“ Hear firsthand the stories behind the Book Carts.
๐Ÿ“ฆ Logistics That Matter โ€“ Help ensure hospitals have the resources they need.
๐Ÿ’œ Heartfelt Impact โ€“ Each cart represents many babies remembered and families supported
