The Angel Trot 5k has been established by the Jog for Jordyn Foundation in hopes
to raise money for Stillborn research and newly grieving parents. On October 5th 2005, Sherie Johnson, Founder of Jog for Jordyn Foundation, experienced the stillbirth of her first born daughter, Jordyn Amya Johnson at 39 weeks, 2days. With not a lot of answers as to why, and what went wrong, this has been a struggle to understand for her as well as many others who have experienced such a tragedy. This event is being started in hopes to not only support research for answers, but also to reach out to those who have experienced the loss of their precious baby. The Angel Trot 5k is hoping to raise money for the Star Legacy Foundation, who conducts research in hopes to find answers as to why these things happen and what to do to prevent them, and local charity Sweet Pea Project, who donates blankets and memorabilia to newly grieving parents. More information can be found at starlegacyfoundation.org and sweetpeaproject.org. |
