Here for You - A Monthly Support Group for Parents
2025-08-05 19:30 - 20:00, 2025-09-02 19:30 - 20:00 (America/Chicago)
When your child is diagnosed with a brain vessel disease or suffers a stroke, life changes in an instant. The questions, the fear, the isolation—it’s overwhelming. But you don’t have to face it alone.
This group was created by parents, for parents—to offer comfort, connection, and community to those walking this road. Whether your child is continuing the fight here on Earth or now lives on in Heaven, you are welcome here. Our monthly Zoom meetings begin together and breaks out into “In Heaven” and “On Earth” groups, so every parent can feel seen and supported in the way they need most.
We are currently looking for volunteers to help guide these conversations by taking turns as meeting leaders. No special skills required—just an open heart.

Meets every first Tuesday of the month
7:00 PM CST | One Hour | Zoom

🌟 Join Us for a Month of Brazos Valley Gives — September 22-October 21! 🌟
This year, AVM Alliance is part of Brazos Valley Gives, a month-long online fundraising marathon. It’s our biggest giving event of the year — and you don’t have to live in the Brazos Valley to take part.
Here’s where you come in: donations are important, but creating your own personal fundraiser makes an even bigger impact. Why? Because your story carries weight. When your friends, family, coworkers, and community hear why you care, they’re far more likely to give — and that ripple effect is how real change happens.
How to Create Your Own Fundraiser (it’s easy!):1️⃣ Visit our page: AVM Alliance on Brazos Valley Gives2️⃣ Click “Create a Fundraiser”3️⃣ Add your details — title, your name, a custom link, and your fundraising goal4️⃣ Share your story: why AVM Alliance matters to you5️⃣ Add a personal image (you + AVM Alliance, or a program you love)6️⃣ Review, publish, and share your fundraiser link with everyone you know!
Your personal campaign doesn’t just raise funds — it raises awareness, brings comfort to grieving families, and ensures that more children are diagnosed and treated early.
💙 Whether you give, or create your own fundraiser, you’re helping AVM Alliance continue to stand beside families like yours and extend hope to others who desperately need it.
