The Briggs family (Garrett, Elizabeth, and Olivia) tragically lost their beloved 5 month old daughter, Piper on 6/21/21. We have set up this site to give our amazing community of friends and family the ability to help the Briggs’ with whatever they may need in the upcoming months. 

We cannot begin to express the amount of gratitude we have for everyone who has shown up for our family. The overwhelming wave of support and love you have all given us will stay with us all for a lifetime. Thank you will never be enough, but from the bottoms of our hearts, thank you. 🤍

Bearaby's Cotton Napper is a buttery soft, breathable, knitted weighted blanket made from long-staple certified organic cotton - helping you sleep more deeply and wake feeling rested and revitalized.
Ideal for all seasons, weighted blankets have been medically proven to aid naturally deeper sleep cycles. The weight on your body stimulates the production of serotonin (the happy hormone), reduces cortisol (the stress hormone), and increases melatonin, which helps you fall (and stay) asleep.
Plus, Bearaby weighted blankets use nothing but layer upon layer of natural, breathable, great-feeling fabric and an open-loop knit design to bring you the best knitted weighted blanket for blissfully deep sleep -- so you'll wake up feeling cool, calm, and collected.
Why We Love This Gift: During times of grief or anxiety, a weighted blanket can provide a biological cue to relax. The feeling of a weighted blanket "hug" signals to the brain that it's time to quiet our thoughts and slide into sleep. We love this gift because it can provide soothing comfort to those who feel alone or distressed - especially during times when you are unable to be by the side of a grieving loved one.
What To Express In Your Card: I want to give you a hug so badly. In the meantime, I hope this blanket offers some comfort. I love you.

This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.
What To Express in Your Card: You'd do exactly the same. xo

Why We Love This Gift: Applebee's is suitable for any occasion. Situations in which a meal is a good choice include military spouses coping with a deployed spouse.

Enable this person you love to grab a meal - wherever s/he is.
