The Country Star And His Wife’s Donation Has Led To A Special Fund Being Named After Their Daughter, Rosie

Every birth is a miracle, but any parent could tell you that doesn’t mean the struggles end when the baby arrives.

At the beginning of the year, on Jan. 6, country artist HARDY and his wife, Caleigh Hardy, made a significant donation to a cause close to their heart.

Visiting the Mother’s Milk Bank of Tennessee, located just outside of Nashville in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, HARDY and Caleigh were joined by their daughter, Rosie, as they presented a check for $45,000.

This donation to the Mothers’ Milk Bank of TN, in turn, established the Rosie Fund, which “will help ensure continued access to safe, pasteurized donor human milk for families who face financial barriers to obtaining this vital nutrition,” a press release stated.

“After becoming donor milk recipients ourselves, we couldn’t bear the thought of a mother not being able to provide their sweet baby with milk due to financial barriers,” wrote Caleigh Hardy in a January 14 post on her Instagram.

HARDY and Caleigh’s daughter, Rosie, was born on March 7, 2025.

Continuing, Caleigh wrote, “So, The Rosie Fund is here to ensure that families can continue to provide the life-changing nutrients that their most vulnerable ones deserve.”

Caleigh added, “God brought us their way and now we know why. Here’s to giving back to the little ones who need it most of all!!”

The $45,000 donation was sent by the Hardy Fund of the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, and was directed to the Mothers’ Milk Bank’s Compassionate Care Fund.

As a result of this donation, the Compassionate Care Fund has been renamed to the Rosie Fund.

Amy Painter, executive director of Mothers’ Milk Bank of TN, said of HARDY’s $45,000 donation:

“Renaming our Compassionate Care Fund as the Rosie Fund is a meaningful tribute to the families we serve and the life-changing role donor human milk can play. We are deeply grateful to Michael and Caleigh Hardy and the Hardy Fund of the Community Foundation for their generosity and for honoring Rosie’s journey in a way that will help countless other babies thrive.”

According to a press release by the Mothers’ Milk Bank, “Pasteurized donor human milk is a critical medical intervention for infants who are premature, medically fragile, or unable to receive sufficient milk from their own mother.”

The Rosie Fund has been established so the Mothers’ Milk Bank of TN can “continue providing financial assistance to families who otherwise may not be able to afford donor milk during vulnerable moments in their child’s life.”

Painter added, “The Hardy Fund’s support reflects a powerful commitment to improving infant health outcomes in our community. This gift will have a lasting impact by expanding access to donor milk when families need it most.”
