From the Organizer
Footprint Sprint is a 5K color run and fun run held each October to promote Infant Loss Awareness month. This run is sponsored by Baker’s Blessing, a nonprofit organization created in memory of Baker Kade Beach who was stillborn at 33 weeks. Baker’s Blessing provides care packages for women and families who suffer from miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss. All proceeds from the race will go directly to Baker’s Blessing to support families who suffer from these losses.
