Holiday Bereavement Care Package Drive

The launch of the 2009 Holiday Bereavement Care package drive is here. Through our previous drives in 2008 and 2009, over 100 care packages have been donated in honor of your children. This annual drive has aided us in being able to supply 450 care packages to over 20 metro area hospitals, and we are currently working to continue to expand to other hospitals.

The holidays, a time for family, can be the hardest time of year for families who have suffered the loss of a child. If you are looking for a way to honor and remember a child this holiday season, A Walk to Remember would like to invite you to Sponsor-A-Care-Package in a child’s name.

By sponsoring a Care Package, you can help a family by giving the gift of cherished memories. With the limited time that families have to honor the memory of their child, it is critical that bereaved parents receive the resources available to help ease the pain of their loss.

Not only will you change the lives of another family, but by donating the full cost of a package ($40) you have an opportunity to honor and share the memory of your own child or the child of a friend or loved one. Sponsored packages will be given a beautiful hang-tag stating that this package was sponsored “In loving memory” of the child you choose. We know that times are difficult now, so if you are unable to donate the full cost of a care package you may choose to donate a smaller amount. Even a small donation of $10 can help us achieve our goal to deliver as many Care Packages as possible to families in need.

Please visit our Care Package Donation Page to view a sample bereavement package, sponsor a package, or donate another amount to help support our Bereavement Care Package program. With your help, we can ensure that bereaved parents in Colorado receive the greatest gift they could ask for: the gift of memories.

Thank you for all your support,
A Walk to Remember Board
