About this Event
Why we walk? After the unexpected loss of their newborn son Hudson on May 26, 2011, parents Melissa and Adam Yoskowitz established the Hudson Shea Foundation to provide a platform for perinatal and neonatal support services to grieving parents after the devastating loss of a baby. Shortly after their loss, Adam and Melissa met Cannan and Sarah Himmelbaum who also suffered the loss of a baby, their daughter Stella Faith. One such service unique to the foundation is a men's support group exclusive to fathers whom have experienced the loss of a baby which we started 11 years ago. We have been told that we are the first group in the country to have a group like this. HSF has raised over $100,000.00 for the Rutgers University and the Child Health Institute of New Jersey (CHNJ) at the Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS) to fund medical research in the fields of preterm birth, perinatal and neonatal health issues. The Hudson Shea and Stella Faith Fund has donated and will continue to donate to research in these areas to understand the fundamental causes of preterm labor and life-threatening neonatal disorders with the hope of funding new cures and preventions.
The HSF hopes to shine a light on this very important need and continue to expand support services in local communities. The HSF works to honor Hudson and all the lost little angels whose legacy can, with your help, fill a much needed niche for support groups, additional resources to grieving parents, and hope for a brighter future. The HSF looks forward to seeing you at our annual walk for a morning of tribute and remembrance.
