Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Day

If you or someone you love has lost a child to miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS or any other cause at any point of pregnancy or infancy, we invite you to join us on World Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day, October 15th. We will gather at 6:30 pm at Garfield Park on North Garfield Street and participate in the International Wave of Light by lighting candles at 7pm to honor all babies gone too soon. Candles will be provided. Candles remain lit for one hour to create a continuous wave of light across all time zones covering the entire globe.

If you’d like to bring a photo or special memento of your baby, please feel free to do so. There will be a short, simple service at 7pm to honor our babies.

If you cannot attend, but would like to have your baby remembered, please text one of the numbers below to have your child’s name added to the memorial candle ceremony.
