From the Organizer
We are so excited for the 10th annual Race for Grace Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Run/Walk! There will be both In-Person and Virtual options for the 5K and Remembrance Walk. This event is such a special time to bring awareness to pregnancy and infant loss, experienced by one in every four pregnancies...as well as to show our support as we walk and remember together with so many families honoring the memory of their precious babies.
Please join us as we walk and remember our sweet babies together. Whether you are a family who has experienced the loss of a baby or a friend who feels compelled to walk in support and solidarity, you are invited to join us for FREE for this mile long walk.
You may donate for a special remembrance sign to line this sacred mile, in memory or in honor of a baby or loved one.
All proceeds from this event will benefit the mission of Sufficient Grace Ministries to offer some of the most comprehensive perinatal loss support and resources to bereaved families all over the world! Since SGM was founded in 2004, thousands of families have found comfort and hope in the midst of grief. This year, we continue to grow, supporting grieving parents and equipping others to offer compassionate, family-centered support.
Please join us as we walk and remember together!
All proceeds go to support the mission of Sufficient Grace Ministries as they support families experiencing pregnancy or infant loss.
