Our Mission
Inspired by personal tragedy, the Travis Taormina Foundation was created to support women and families in Orange County, CA who experience the heartbreaking loss of a child through miscarriage or stillbirth.
Our mission is to provide compassionate care during this unimaginable time. We deliver thoughtfully curated care packages, known as Travis Totes, filled with wellness items that nurture emotional and physical healing. Each tote also connects mothers to meaningful aftercare support, including community resources and ongoing encouragement.
Travis Totes are lovingly assembled by local children and adults, adding a personal touch to every gift. In addition to our tote program, we offer volunteer opportunities that empower families to serve their community together in meaningful ways.
Our Story:
In 2022, our family faced an unimaginable loss when a tragic car accident on Pacific Coast Highway took the life of our unborn son, Travis. In the days and months that followed, we were carried by the kindness of our community, not through financial support, but through meals, prayers, childcare, hugs, and helping hands. And it wasn’t just adults who showed up. Their children did too.
That love became the foundation for the TT Foundation.
Today, our board is made up of women who share a personal understanding of loss and its profound impact on a family. Together, we are committed to coming alongside mothers and families experiencing pregnancy loss, offering the same kind of tangible care, community, and hope that meant so much to our family.
We believe deeply in the power of families serving together. Through meaningful, hands-on opportunities, we invite children and parents to serve side by side, care for their community, and remind families walking through some of life’s hardest moments that they are not alone.
