Annual Share Walk for Remembrance & Hope

The Share Walk for Remembrance & Hope is a memorial event that provides families who have experienced the tragic death of a baby an opportunity to openly acknowledge and remember their babies among family, friends and other bereaved families and to walk the steps their precious children never got to take. The gathering allows bereaved parents to find comfort in friendship, strength in shared experiences and hope for healing and happiness. Proceeds from this event allow the organization to continue to support bereaved families at no charge.
