Celebrating Strength and Remembrance: March of Dimes April 18, 2026

TLOD and TTA had an incredible day supporting the March of Dimes! It was a morning filled with energy, community spirit, and heartfelt moments.

TTA brought the hype to the course! With bells ringing and pom-poms shaking, they cheered on every walker passing by. They also made sure everyone stayed hydrated, handing out water to the participants as they crossed their milestones.

At the Honor Tent, TLOD provided a space for peace and remembrance. Attendees joined us to memorialize babies they have lost or who did not survive, coloring beautiful butterflies to add to our commemorative butterfly tarp. To keep those memories growing, we also handed out seed packets for participants to plant memorial flowers at home. 💙🤍🩷💛🩶
