Our Programs

What We Are Building

Everything below is either available today or actively being built by our founding community.

Program One

The Light Grant

Helping Families Carry the Financial Weight

The Light Grant is being created to provide compassionate financial assistance to families navigating pregnancy loss, infant loss, or child loss.

Support may help with:

  • Funeral and memorial expenses
  • Cremation or burial costs
  • Headstones or memorial markers
  • Meaningful keepsakes
  • Other urgent expenses connected to the loss of a child

Grant applications will open as funding becomes available.

Program Two

The Family Circle

Every Child Deserves to Be Remembered

The Family Circle is available to families who would like their child’s life and story to continue being remembered.

Families may share their child’s name, birthday, angelversary, story, meaningful details, and preferred ways of receiving remembrance support.

With permission, The Light We Carry Foundation will use this information to honor children through birthday cards, angelversary remembrance, holiday outreach, and other meaningful acts of care.

Families do not need to receive financial assistance to join.

Program Three

The Light We Carry Walk & Run

Coming in the Future

The Light We Carry Walk & Run will bring families, friends, runners, walkers, and community supporters together to honor every story and every light.

Participants will have the opportunity to carry the name of a child they are honoring, while every submitted child’s name is displayed equally before the event begins.
