A Winter Gala

A little over 3 years ago, my nephew Addison and his then girlfriend Kaylee, lost their 8 month gestation baby girl.  Her name was Addalie.  She was stillborn.  Thanks to a local non profit organization, Emma's Footprints, they were flooded with help.   Emma's Footprints is a support organization for families that suffer infant or pregnancy loss.  They provide grieving and counseling support, and also financial help for burial and memorialization.  They came to Addison's aid so he could focus on grieving his tiny daughter.

Every year Emma's Footprints host their annual Winter Gala, which is their biggest fundraiser.  This year I was able to attend, along with my daughter and my sister.  We went with my sister in law and her 3 children, one being my nephew Addison, and their significant others. It was a fabulous night, where everyone dressed up in their best attire and came together to support this amazing cause.  There were drinks, a wonderful program followed by a delicious dinner, a Chinese auction, and a prize wheel.  Later came the dancing and desert!  We had the best time ever!!

  2. I haven't heard of this organization before, but I think it must be comforting for those who have lost a baby. How lovely of them to put on such a nice gala for the families. You all looked so beautiful!
