Our story…

Two years ago, Shawna's best friend lost her husband to glioblastoma - a deadly and aggressive form of brain cancer. Her children were 12 and 9. Watching them navigate their grief - and everything that comes with that - has been heartbreaking and extremely eye opening. 

Shawna has been involved with Lighthouse for Grieving Children and families for the past 7 years at both the committee and board level. 1 in 14 children will experience the death of a parent or sibling by the time they turn 18. Our annual Run is our biggest fundraiser, and as a non-profit that's 95% self-funded, donations are critical to our ability to offer free programming.

Baking Bread Media is please to sponsor this year's Run team and we invite you to join us in supporting the Lighthouse and ensuring no child grieves alone. Thank you!
