A Memory Grows is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that serves as an outreach to grieving parents, and as a resource to hospitals, clinics, hospice groups, churches and other nonprofit organizations.

A Memory Grows is only the second organization of its kind in the United States with the focus of all retreats and special events being to support and walk beside families on the journey of grief, offering hope and the promise that we are not alone.

Since 2017 A Memory Grows has provided retreats, special events, resources, in-person and virtual support to parents in 17 different states and Canada. All proceeds from our Legacy 5K will offer hope and support to grieving families and allow us to expand our services and reach.

Our mission is to provide a space of healing and peace for parents who are grieving the death of their child. By bringing together those who have experienced a similar loss in a retreat setting we honor and celebrate our children while making connections with others who truly understand our journey. A memory grows where love carries on.
