About the Event

The 2nd Annual Weeping Willa Memorial Event stands as a poignant tribute to those who have experienced the unimaginable loss of a child. This heartfelt gathering honors individuals and families who have faced miscarriage, stillbirth, or other heartbreaking losses at any stage in life. All proceeds from this event directly support grieving families by offering financial assistance and resources essential for their journey toward healing.
Weeping Willa, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by bereaved parents, aims to create a safe and supportive community where no one walks through loss alone. The event brings together participants in various forms of remembrance—join the vibrant 5K run/walk or take part in the gentle 1-mile walk. For families with young children, there’s also a fun-filled kids’ activity that encourages participation from all ages.
This day transcends mere competition; it is an opportunity for community, love, and hope. Participants will be surrounded by a diverse array of individuals united by shared experiences, creating a powerful atmosphere of support and remembrance. The event celebrates the lives lost but ensures their memories live on through acts of kindness and unity.
Together, we honor our children who have gone too soon, nurturing hope with every step forward in this meaningful community gathering.
