Emily's Path

🌸Happy Birthday, Emily!🌸
In honor of the girl who inspired it all, we're excited to announce a change to our annual fundraiser. Going forward, our fundraising drive will take place each year around Emily's birthday in March — a time that feels far more fitting than any other. We'll skip 2026, and our next fundraiser will launch in March 2027, when Emily would have turned 30. We can't think of a more beautiful way to mark that milestone.

Stay tuned for details as we get closer. In the meantime, thank you — as always — for walking Emily's Path with us. 💜

A $10,000 donation from Emily's Path means that Marathon County families will soon be able to register for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library and receive a free book each month for children ages 0-5! This is exactly the kind of lasting, joyful impact Emily’s Path was created to support. 💜📖🥰

Today marks 16 years since we said goodbye to our sweet Emily. Though time moves forward, the ache of her absence remains-- and so does the love. We remember her smile, her spirit, and the joy she brought into our lives in far too short a time. Always loved. Always missed. Always remembered. 💜

Happy Birthday in Heaven, Emily! 💜

Today, you would have been 28, and while we wish we could celebrate with you here, we know you're dancing among the clouds, free and full of joy. We can only imagine you splashing in the most beautiful waters, laughing with pure delight. We hope there’s plenty of chocolate cake with extra frosting and maybe even a few playful pigs nearby to make you smile. 🥰

You will forever be our sweet girl with a heart as big as the sky. We miss you deeply, but today we celebrate you with love, smiles, and the sweetest memories.

Happy Birthday, beautiful soul. 💜🐷🌊🍫🎂
