Join Empty Arms Vermont for a flat and scenic 5K race/walk starting and finishing at Oakledge Park in Burlington. This is a family-friendly event for the whole community — both competitive runners and enthusiastic walkers. After the race, stick around to enjoy the park, Lake Champlain, Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, a circus performance and time together. This 5K benefits the vision of Empty Arms Vermont, which is to foster a community of care, compassion and connection as families grieve pregnancy and infant loss.

Whether you have experienced pregnancy or infant loss, are a supportive family member or friend, a medical provider, or a compassionate community member -- we invite you to this special community event!
