This allows over 150 children to receive free grief support for an entire year. “The Run is an incredible opportunity to bring the community together to have some fun and show much love and support to children and teens in their grief journey. Lighthouse counts on the dollars raised from fundraising events to ensure our services remain free for families who need them.” explained Anne Smith, Executive Director at Lighthouse.
