Commemorating Precious Little Ones~
Missing GRACE Foundation offers many outlets and opportunities for families to honor and remember babies with dignity, love and respect. Throughout the year there are programs offered with candlelit ceremonies, earth friendly balloon releases, community outreach, gatherings each December at the Angel of Hope and the Annual Kaila & Grace's Hope & Hearts Run/Walk.


Hope & Hearts Run/Walk is about hope for the future through education and research and supporting the hearts of families who have lost to move forward. The first event took place in 2006 at Lake Harriet in Minneapolis, Minnesota and now it is starting in other states across the nation. To participate in the next event, to form a Team made up of staff from your place of employment or to become a Corporate Sponsor for the next Hope & Hearts Run/Walk please visit: www.hopeandheartsrun.org.
