(Evening Meeting) SANDI FASANO
FRONT RANGE ANGEL GOWNS

Sandi Fasano (founder) of Front Range Angel Gowns is our special guest speaker this evening. She explains,"I am the mother of 4 children, 3 grand children and 2 great grandchildren. I have not suffered the loss of a child, but my children have. I was helpless to DO anything, but I knew I could do this, so I started Front Range Angels.

Front Range Angel Gowns transforms donated wedding dresses into burial gowns for babies lost too soon. We also provide early loss buntings.  They are offered FREE of cost to any hospital, clinic, Midwife, Doula or bereavement network in the Denver and surrounding areas in Colorado that requests them. We will also provide a gown to an individual family who has suffered the loss of a baby before, during or shortly after birth.

I started putting the word out about what I was doing to media, print and word of mouth. I have over 40 volunteers and have received so many generous donations including over 200 wedding dresses, flannel and supplies.

We have donated angel gowns and early loss buntings to hospitals, mortuaries, hospice and to individual families throughout the Denver, Loveland and Ft. Collins areas.

My purpose in sharing Front Range Angel Gowns is to bring awareness and to make angel gowns and other items available to every facility in our area.

In today's program I am going to share:

What are angel gowns

The need

Why a wedding dress

What I need

What others can do
