Run for Reid Year 5
Tax deductible
It's that time of year again! Time to Run For Reid, year 5!!! We are back again to raise money for EdMarc Hospice for Children and to honor my beautiful son Reid Hargrave and his memory. Reid passed away 6 years ago from a debilitating disease. He was 3 and half years old. He fought like a champion every day to stay alive, and was an inspiration to all who knew him. His legend has grown year after year, and this year will be the biggest and best year yet! We will be running the Shamrock Half Marathon on Sunday March 17th. Our team has grown from 2 runners at year 1, to over 20 this year! Please help us reach our goal. Below is more information about EdMarc and their amazing organization.
More information about Edmarc, Inc. (Edmarc Hospice for Children): The mission of Edmarc Hospice for Children is to ease the trauma of a child's illness or death, and to reduce the disabling effects of pediatric illness, loss, and bereavement on families. Edmarc's health care services allow a child with a life-limiting illness to stay at home whenever possible. Remaining at home helps alleviate some of the child's stress, and can make healthcare for the child less traumatic. But when a child is ill, Edmarc never forgets that the entire family is affected. Families who have a child with a life-limiting illness experience a high level of stress, including emotional, social, spiritual, and financial pressures. This stress often becomes debilitating to the entire family, sometimes resulting in dysfunctional family dynamics, financial hardship, and divorce. To help families cope, Edmarc offers a broad range of services to address not only the physical and emotional needs of the child, but the multi-dimensional needs of the family as well. Our average daily census is 60 families (210 people) receiving home health services and anticipatory grief support and 154 families (539 people) in bereavement care. Edmarc is a non-profit hospice with a voluntary Board of Directors. All health care services are provided in the child's own home and regardless of a family's ability to pay.
