A Memory Grows is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that serves as
an outreach to grieving parents, and as a resource to hospitals,
clinics, hospice groups, churches and other nonprofit organizations.
The Legacy 5K Fun Run is A Memory Grow's annual run and walk. This
race is open to anyone who would like to join us as we honor the lives
and legacies of our children. While our race is not officially timed
by a timing company, we have many serious runners who participate each
year. Our participants include parents who have experienced the death
of a child, friends and family of grieving parents, community members
who want to support our organization, and casual or serious runners
and walkers. The Legacy 5K is an uplifting event full of hope,
community, and love. A Memory Grows is only the second organization of
its kind in the United States. The focus of our retreats and special
events is to bring to support and walk beside families on the journey
of grief, while offering hope and the promise that we are not alone.
Since 2017 A Memory Grows has provided retreats, special events,
resources, in-person and virtual support to parents in 17 different
states and Canada. All proceeds from our Legacy 5K will offer hope and
support to grieving families and allow us to expand our services and
reach. Click Here For Registration:
