Join us for the Stepping for Life 5K Walk/Run on Saturday, November 16, 2024, at the Meade County Fairgrounds in Brandenburg. This event promises to be a heartwarming experience for all who participate.
The Stepping for Life 5K Walk/Run is not just about fitness and fun; it's about supporting a cause that truly matters. All proceeds from this event will go toward the Safe Haven Baby Boxes initiative. Safe Haven Baby Boxes is dedicated to preventing the illegal abandonment of newborns by raising awareness, offering a 24-hour hotline for mothers in crisis, and providing Safe Haven Baby Boxes as a last-resort option for women who want to maintain complete anonymity while ensuring the safety of their newborns.
Learn More About The Event
Safe Haven Baby Boxes
Safe Haven Baby Boxes provide a lifeline for mothers in crisis under Kentucky's Safe Haven Law. These specially designed safety devices are installed in the exterior walls of designated fire stations, EMS facilities, and hospitals. When a newborn is placed inside, the exterior door locks automatically, ensuring the baby's security. Medical staff can then safely retrieve the surrendered newborn from inside the designated building.
