New to our site and just learning about Hope & Hearts? Here is a little about how this event got started and what it is all about...

April and Dan Wurst and Candy and Steve McVicar began hosting the event in honor of their daughters, Kaila and Grace, who were both stillborn due to cord issues at 38 and 33 weeks gestation respectively. Hope and Hearts is about hope for the future through education and research and supporting the hearts of families who have lost to move forward. Please join us as we Run to make a difference!

Proceeds benefit the Missing GRACE Foundation which provides support and resources locally in MN and nationally to aid individuals as they Grieve, Restore, Arise, Commemorate and Educate. The mission of Missing GRACE Foundation is to provide resources and support to families who have experienced a pregnancy or infant loss, infertility or adoption challenges and to advocate for proper management of pregnancies for all women.

Sponsor We appreciate and value individual and corporate sponsorships which help to off-set costs of the race. The more sponsors we receive, the more money can be directed to our goal of supporting and educating families/medical community on stillbirth awareness and prevention.
