Daisy's Rainbow Memorial Fund

Young girls blowing bubbles

Lolly Hader created Daisy’s Rainbow Cart in honor of her daughter, Daisy, who passed away from a rare disease at just 8 years old in October 2016. Daisy spent many days in the Pediatric Unit at Benefis Health System before eventually spending nine months at Seattle Children’s Hospital. While receiving treatment in Seattle, Daisy especially looked forward to their cart of toys, games, art, and activities.

The items from the activity cart at Seattle Children’s Hospital really helped Daisy pass the time when she was receiving treatment. She loved the packets of modeling clay, painting activities, and many stuffed animals. I want to pass along this kindness to children in Great Falls. I hope Daisy’s Rainbow Cart will bring smiles and happiness to kids during their stay at Benefis.

As of July 2023, Daisy’s Rainbow Cart will be expanded to include Daisy’s Rainbow Memorial Fund requests. This fund is designed to help northcentral Montana families who have experienced the loss of their child (at 20+ weeks of pregnancy to 18 years of age) by assisting with expenses including, but not limited to, funeral costs, cremation, burial, headstone, etc.
