From the Organizer
Please join us on September 12th to remember our beautiful Tove Ann and all other children taken too soon through Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC). Tove was and is a shining light in our lives - a sweet, inquisitive little girl with just the right amount of naughtiness mixed in. Tove's sixth birthday is September 17th and we look forward to gathering with friends and family to remember our perfect girl and to raise awareness of SUDC.
SUDC is a category of death in children between the ages of 1 and 18 that remains unexplained after a thorough investigation. At this time, we don't know what causes SUDC, how to predict it or how to prevent it. 100% of proceeds from Tove's Light Memorial Walk will go to the SUDC Foundation to support families and further research. Please visit sudc.org to learn more.
If you were able to participate last year, please wear your Tove's Light t-shirt. If you would like to order one this year, you'll be able to do that at registration.
