If there were ever a person who symbolized light, Sims Vickers was it. He was so kind, caring, outgoing, and fun. Sims’ life ended much too soon on March 27, 2022. After raising over $25,000 for local, caregiving non-profits the past two years, we’re ready to run the Let It Shine 5K again. This event is our attempt to continue spreading light with a world that needs it.

For the third installment of the race, we’re supporting the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Piedmont Columbus Regional – Midtown, and specifically the Parent Advisory Council (PAC). Our local NICU is the only one in our region – a Level III, 46-bed NICU – helping babies with health complications to have a fighting chance to thrive. Almost everyone has been touched by or known a family that needed the care a NICU, our local NICU, provides. The PAC is comprised of former NICU parents and aims to provide extra support to the babies, their families, and the NICU staff. It provides tangible needs, like socks or meal vouchers, and other support, such as contributing to the NICU Bereavement Fund. Funds raised by this 5K will be donated to the Columbus NICU Parent Advisory Council to help babies, their families, and their caregivers.

Your donation will shine a light for real patients and their families, helping them through an incredibly difficult time in their lives. Thank you for joining us in this important work!
