All funds raised through registration, donations, and swag sales go directly to supporting families who have lost a baby at any stage of pregnancy, infancy, or early childhood.

👟 Create or Join a Team
Form a team in memory of a baby or join as an individual. Invite your community to walk or run with you or to support your fundraising efforts. Last year, together we raised over $130,000—let’s do it again!

🖤 Why the "Empty Stroller"?
Many participants run or walk with empty strollers to symbolize the heartbreaking absence of a child. It’s a powerful visual reminder of the babies we are honoring, but it’s not required to participate.
