Remembrance Gathering - Tampa Bay

On October 15th, 2011, I am organizing Tampa Bay's 1st ever Remembrance Gathering at Crescent Lake Park in St. Petersburg, Florida. This is partnered with the Sweet Pea Project.

Sweet Pea Project is a non-profit organization created in January 2009 by Stephanie Cole after the death of her daughter, as a way to honor her memory and reach out to other bereaved parents. Through their work, the Sweet Pea Project helps create a more supportive and compassionate community for other families affected by this profound and permanent loss.

October 15th is National Remembrance Day for families who have experienced the death of a baby. In observance of this day, and in honor of all the babies that are so deeply loved and missed, the Sweet Pea Project sponsors an eco-friendly balloon release in celebration of the short but precious lives of the babies we so desperately love and miss.
