Our Mission
Mamie's Poppy Plates is a donation supported non-profit whose mission is to provide tangible mementos to families who suffer stillbirth or infant death. Our keepsake plates, given to affected families at no charge, are customized with the baby's footprints, name, and birth information. Mamie's Poppy Plates exists not to fill the impossible void of loss but to serve as a timeless reminder of their baby's brief yet profound life.

Third Annual Race to Remember
Families who lose children rarely, if ever, get an opportunity to publicly recognize their baby. Race to remember gives them a chance to join together for a special occasion in memory of that special child. Over the past two years the money we have raised has helped us expand by moving to a location where our kiln and office is housed under one roof, serving families in other states, continuing to hire talented and dedicated painters, and shipping all plates directly to families. Given the past years' enormous responses, we expect to have another successful event this year. As we move into 2014, we hope that, with your help, we'll continue to grow so that we can serve even more families across the state and the country.

Run/Walk In Memory
Run solo or form a team to walk or run in memory of a lost child. Blank bibs will be provided to acknowledge your loved one. Honor the memory of your child by participating in the biodegradable balloon release at the start of the race.
