Spencer Smith Park, Lakeshore Road, Burlington, ON, Canada
Run4Lighthouse is the largest fundraising event of the year with all funds raised going directly to support grieving children and their families. Last year over $250,000 was raised thanks to the generosity of the community. 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. For those who wish to support Lighthouse’s mission to ensure no child grieves alone, join us and register. You can also donate, a donation of $50 gives you one entry into a draw for a 7-night Caribbean Cruise, generously donated by Expedia Cruises Oakville South. Please visit: http://www.Run4LH.com
