🩸 Blood Drives: Giving the Gift of Life
“In blood there is life, and I needed a lot of it when I was going through everything.” — Femi
Though Femi is no longer physically with us, her words and legacy continue to inspire life-saving impact.
In her honor, Femi’s Heart Foundation, in partnership with the American Red Cross and Benin Red Cross, hosts annual blood drives to encourage our community to give the gift of life.
Each donation has the power to save lives—supporting patients facing surgery, childbirth complications, cancer treatments, and medical emergencies.

If you missed our most recent blood drive, you can still make a difference. Visit redcross.org to schedule your donation and give in honor of Femi.

MENTAL HEALTH & WELLNESS RETREAT
Siblings Support Care Initiative Program
SIBLINGS SUPPORT INITIATIVE PROGRAM
REST • RENEW •RESTORE
A Day of Healing • Hope • Connection
For the Whole Family
Life can become overwhelming.
Families carry grief. Parents experience stress. Young people navigate pressures that may be difficult to express. Caregivers spend so much time caring for others that they may forget how important it is to care for themselves.
The Femi’s Heart Foundation Mental Health & Wellness Retreat creates an intentional space where individuals and families can step away from everyday demands, connect with supportive resources, and focus on emotional, mental, relational, and overall wellbeing.
This is more than an annual gathering.
It is an invitation to rest, renew, and restore.
WHY WE CREATED THE RETREAT
Mental wellness belongs to everyone.
Yet cost, stigma, cultural differences, limited access to information, and fear of judgment can prevent individuals and families from seeking support.
Femi’s Heart Foundation believes communities become stronger when conversations about mental health are compassionate, culturally responsive, accessible, and centered on hope.
The Mental Health & Wellness Retreat creates an environment where participants can learn, connect, reflect, and discover resources that support healthier individuals and stronger families.
EVERY FAMILY DESERVES SPACE TO BREATHE
Sometimes one intentional day can begin a much longer journey toward wellness.
Join Femi’s Heart Foundation as we create a community where seeking support is a sign of strength and where families have opportunities to:
REST.
RENEW.
RESTORE.

When a child faces cardiac surgery, hospitalization, or another critical health challenge, the entire family is affected.
Parents and caregivers understandably devote significant attention to the child receiving medical care. At the same time, brothers and sisters may experience fear, uncertainty, loneliness, disrupted routines, or difficulty understanding what is happening.
The Femi’s Heart Foundation Siblings Support Initiative Program was created to help ensure that siblings are seen, supported, and remembered during some of their family’s most difficult moments.
Through compassionate family-centered support, Femi’s Heart works alongside hospital partners to provide practical resources, encouragement, and moments of comfort for siblings and caregivers.
Seen. Supported. Stronger Together.
HELP A SIBLING KNOW THEY MATTER
A hospital stay can change a family's world.
Together, we can make sure brothers and sisters aren't forgotten in the middle of that experience.
Seen. Supported. Stronger Together.
