Event Description
Kick-off the month of May with the 5th Annual Dignity Health Family 5K on
Saturday, May 4 2019 at Freestone Park in Gilbert.
The event has a distance for everyone, including a
5K Run/Walk, Family 1 Mile, and 100 Yard Kids' Dash.
Invite your family, friends and colleagues to honor the lives of infants
who have passed on before us and support their families.
Proceeds from the 2019 Family 5K will benefit the mission of a dedicated group of
families seeking to provide empathy called the “Heaven’s Hummingbirds.”
These bereaved parents, dedicated field experts and Dignity Health team members
created a Perinatal Bereavement Support Group to empower and
heal families in the East Valley who have suffered the loss of a baby.
The funds will be used to offer support groups and supportive services
during their grief journey by building a bridge from hospital to home.
Run, Play and Give!
