Kindness Walk Phoenix, AZ

The MISS Foundation's Kindness Walk: We Walk for ThemSunday May 13, 2012 – Mother’s Day




Registration 6:45 am
Walk Begins: 7:30 am


The MISS Foundation's Kindness Walk: We Walk for Them  is an international memorial walk to remember all of the beloved children who are gone too soon, and to honor all of the mothers, fathers, families and communities by participating in Kindness Projects as a way to continue their child's legacy.

The MISS Foundation's international community invites you and your loved ones to participate in our Kindness Walk: We Walk for Them  because death is NOT bigger than a family's love, and because even in their absence, they continue to walk with us, as we walk for them.

This event's Kindness Project is called Beautiful Soles, and will take place at the conclusion of the walk. Here, families will donate new or gently used shoes, and adorn the shoes with a legacy message in honor of their beloved child. The Beautiful Soles will then be donated to local organizations that serve 

needy children: The legacy of our beloved children will literally walk on in another child.
Please join the Kindness Revolution!

Kindness Walk Phoenix, AZ 



 Phoenix,  Arizona


Sunday May 13, 2011 – Mother’s Day
Registration 6:45 am! 
Walk Begins: 7:30 am

Each day around the world, parents walk their babies, safely nestled in their strollers, around parks, neighborhoods, schools and even zoos. Each day around the world, parents hear the steps of their children come through the door at the end of their school day. Each day around the world, parents experience their children's feet returning home for family gatherings and holidays.

But, tragically..., not all children get to ride in their strollers, return home at the end of the school day, or spend time with family.

The Kindness Walk is an International memorial walk to remember all the mothers, fathers, and families-and their beloved children-and to honor those relationships on the most sacred of days for families; Mother's Day.

The MISS Foundation's international community invites you and your loved ones to participate in our Kindness Walk: We Walk For Them because death is NOT bigger than a families love, and because even in their absence, they continue to walk with us as we walk for them.

This event's Kindness Project is called Beautiful Soles, and will take place at the conclusion of the walk. Here, families will donate new or gently used shoes, and adorn the shoes with a legacy message in honor of their beloved child. The Beautiful Soles will then be donated to local organizations that serve needy children: The legacy of our beloved children will literally walk on in another child.

MISS Foundation Helps The Bereaved

EXTRA EXTRA!
Coping with Grief During the Holidays
MISS Foundation Hosting National Children’s Memorial Day Service
        The holidays are especially difficult for the bereaved.  If you or someone you know is mourning the death of a child of any age, please consider attending the National Children’s Memorial Day Service at the Temple Chai at 4645 E. Marilyn Road, Phoenix, AZ 85032 on Sunday, December 11 at 6:30 pm.  Free refreshments served following the memorial service. Temple Chai is west of Tatum Blvd, approximately ½ mile north of Thunderbird Road.
National Children’s Memorial Day began in 1997, and is held annually on the second Sunday in December. At 7:00 p.m. candles are lit around the world, creating a virtual wave of light in which countless families and friends commemorate and honor the memory of children in a way that transcends all ethnic, cultural, religious, and political boundaries.  Such candle lighting events are held both formally and informally, from hundreds of people gathered together, to small family gatherings.
The MISS Foundation hosts National Children’s Memorial Day in the form of a non-denominational memorial service.  Everyone in attendance lights a candle in honor of the beloved child who has died. The MISS Foundation also invites families and loved ones to bring a photo and/or memento to display in the sanctuary during the service.

The MISS Foundation, a Phoenix based nonprofit organization, serves families after the death of a child at any age, from any cause.  The support services that the MISS Foundation provides are multi-faceted and include crisis outreach, support groups, one on one counseling, online support forums, family grief conferences, research and advocacy.  National Children’s Memorial Day is one of the MISS Foundation’s annual events in support of those families who have lost a child.

MISS Foundation founder, Dr. Joanne Cacciatore, speaks to the importance of the National Children’s Memorial Day Service, “Rituals are a crucial part of healthy bereavement.  NCMD is a way for families to proactively remember and honor their child who died too soon, and reminds us all to cherish every moment we have with our children.  It's a lesson from which every parent on Earth can benefit.”

MISS Foundation.................Your Help Appreciated

The MISS Foundation is a volunteer based organization committed to providing crisis support and long term aid to families after the death of a Child, Of which I am a Member and Mentor to other Parents, After the loss of our Dawn Marie ,They supported me !! and countless other families.. Please help me support them and Thank You

*Don’t Tell Me*
Please don't tell me you know how I feel, Unless you have lost your child too,
Please don't tell me my broken heart will heal, Because that is just not true,
Please don't tell me my daughter is in a better place,
Though it is true, I want her here with me,
Don't tell me someday I'll hear her voice, see her face,
Beyond today I cannot see, Don’t tell me it is time to move on,
Because I cannot, Don’t tell me to face the fact she is gone,
Because denial is something I can't stop,
Don't tell me to be thankful for the time I had, Because I wanted more,
Don't tell me when I am my old self you will be glad,
I'll never be as I was before, What you can tell me is you will be here for me,
That you will listen when I talk of my child,
You can share with me my precious memories,
You can even cry with me for a while,
And please don't hesitate to say her name,
Because it is something I long to hear every day,
Friend please realize that I can never be the same,
But if you stand by me, you may like the new person I become someday.
