The $11.44 Pledge
Why We’re Asking for $11.44: The Heart Behind the Pledge
At Project Eleven 44, every offering is born from love and loss.
We exist because of Bella Grace—an extraordinary daughter, sister, and friend—whose life was luminous and whose passing became a sacred call to serve others walking the path of caregiving and grief. Bella took her final breath at 11:44 AM, and in that moment, the number 1144 became something more than time. It became a signpost. A portal. A reminder that love never ends.
Today, we honor that legacy with a very special invitation:
💛 The $11.44 Pledge
44 Founding Friends. $11.44 per month. A circle of support.
What We Offer for Free
When someone is grieving—or caregiving through anticipatory loss—the last thing they need is a paywall or an application fee.
That’s why we’ve built Project Eleven 44 to be a radically free space of refuge, connection, and presence.
Here’s what we offer at no cost:
Compassionate Mentorship — 1:1 matches with volunteers who’ve lived through loss
Sponsored Retreats — grief retreats that are completely covered for Caregrievers
A Free Blog & Resource Library — a growing archive of stories, tools, and reflections
Email Support & Community Care — consistent content, inspiration, and connection
Our belief is simple:
🕊 Love should not be monetized. Grief should not be capitalized.
Support should be accessible—especially when you're most vulnerable.
The Real Cost of Holding Space
While our heartwork is free to access, it’s not free to run.
To sustain our website, communications, mentor program, and retreat planning, we currently have about $500/month in admin costs. This includes website & blog management, keeping us online and supporting caregrievers.
These aren’t glamorous expenses—but they are the backbone of what allows us to show up for others every single day.
Where your $11.44 Goes
Every monthly donation goes directly to:
✨ Maintaining our online space (website with resources, blog, emails, social media, donation system)
✨ Coordinating our mentors and providing grief-informed support
✨Keeping our brand alive all over the interwebs.
None of your donation goes to corporate overhead.
Every dollar is used with care and reverence.
A Circle of 44: Can You Be One?
We’re asking 44 people to pledge $11.44 per month—just enough to collectively meet our current needs and ensure Project Eleven 44 remains sustainable, steady, rooted, and expansive.
🌱 Your pledge helps us continue to hold space for those navigating the unthinkable.
🌱 It allows us to say yes when someone reaches out in heartbreak.
🌱 It keeps the love going.
