Throughout the month of October, homes, neighborhoods, and businesses across the nation are invited to Light It Up Pink and Blue in honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. October is widely recognized for both infant loss and breast cancer awareness, and this is a beautiful way to raise visibility for grieving families. Show your support by lighting your porch, office, storefront, or school in pink and blue. Use our free marketing materials below to inspire your community and help others feel seen, supported, and remembered. Let’s paint the town in love, light, and remembrance.
Join us this October 15th for the Honor Out Loud Candlelighting Ceremony in your town at 7:00 PM local time, as we unite across the country on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Whether you’ve experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal loss, or infertility, you are not alone. This deeply meaningful event offers families the chance to speak their baby's name, light a candle in their honor, and stand in community with others who understand the pain of losing a child too soon. If your town doesn’t have a ceremony yet, consider hosting one in honor of your baby or in support of someone you love. Together, we will break the silence and honor every tiny life that left a huge mark.
On October 18th, join us for our 3rd Annual Chasing the Rainbows Gala at the Out Door Country Club of York—a powerful evening of remembrance, hope, and giving. This special event raises crucial funds for our free, trauma-informed, daily emotional support services that reach families nationwide. From support groups and therapy to mentorship and mindfulness tools, your support makes healing possible. Reserve your ticket or become a sponsor today to stand with thousands of loss parents and help bring light to even the darkest grief.
