1,000 Babies’ Names. One Night.

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month 💗🩵

On October 15th, we will gather at the National Mall in Washington, D.C. to honor babies gone too soon.

Our goal: 1,000 babies’ names remembered, each one written on a luminary bag, each one glowing with candlelight.

No matter where you live in the world, your baby can be part of this moment.

Your baby’s name will be:
• Displayed on a luminary at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool
• All luminaries will be posted on our social media

Join us in person or virtually at 7 PM EST

Help us light up the night with love, remembrance, and awareness.
