π ππ₯π¨πππ₯ ππ«πππ’ππ’π¨π§ π¨π πππ¦ππ¦ππ«ππ§ππOctober is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month, a time to break the silence and honor the millions of families impacted by loss.
On October 15, Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day, families around the world take part in the International Wave of Light, a global tradition where candles are lit at 7:00 PM local time in memory of babies gone too soon.
This year, No Foot Too Small is honored to host four Wave of Light gatherings in Des Moines, Tiffin, Sioux City and virtual!
ππ―ππ§π πππππ’π₯π¬
Registration is FREE for all Wave of Light events. When you register, you will also have the opportunity to submit your angelβs name to be read aloud during the remembrance ceremony.
PLUS! Thanks to our partners at Owlet, any family that registers by September 15 will also have their angel's name(s) added to the Washington D.C. Wave of Light Remembrance Wall!
β¨ In-person events begin at 6:30 PM with registration and reflection, followed by the candle lighting, opening remarks, and the reading of angel names at 7:00 PM CST.
Note: While in-person day-of walk-ins are more than welcome, registration and angel names must be submitted by midnight on October 12 to be included in the ceremony.
Together we will shine light in the darkness, honoring every angel baby with love, remembrance, and community.
