Dollars at Work

Our Largest Fundraiser of the Year

The PILSC Legacy Run/Walk is our largest annual fundraiser and a critical source of funding for our programs and services each year.

Funds raised through this event support the day-to-day work that allows us to provide accessible, compassionate care to individuals and families navigating pregnancy loss, infant loss, and infertility. From our peer support services and professional mental health support to community education, this single event helps sustain our work long after race day ends.

Last year, our community raised over $135,000. This year, with the loss of more than 25% of our funding, the support raised through this event is more important than ever.

When you participate, fundraise, or donate, you are helping ensure that support remains available when it is needed most.

How Your Support Creates Impact

Vital Support Services

Every donation makes a difference. $50 provides 1 hour of professional mental health support, $100 covers a full month of Peer Support Groups for one individual. $300 provides 3 months of 1:1 peer mentorship for one individual.

Accessibility and Equity

Your support ensures our services remain accessible to all, regardless of financial circumstance, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, faith, or background. This means support is available based on need, not ability to pay.

Community Building

Your contribution helps create spaces where individuals and families feel seen, understood, and supported. Through connection and shared experience, participants are reminded they are not alone and that their grief matters.

Breaking Stigma, Raising Awareness

Your support fosters open, compassionate dialogue around pregnancy loss, infant loss, and infertility. By increasing awareness and understanding, we help reduce isolation and create safer, more informed communities.

Remembrance

Donating is a meaningful way to honour the memory of loved ones lost. Your contribution offers comfort, recognition, and support to others navigating similar experiences, transforming remembrance into care.

"As parents to a baby not earthside, we don't get to enjoy the birthday parties or school plays, but this event is something that we do get to do for our child"

The Impact Your Contribution Has...

Here are some testimonials from clients who have accessed PILSC support services within this past year:

"This group was pivotal in my grief. I have been in grief groups before this with other people of all kinds of loss. Being in a group with loss similar to mine was easier to open up and share because we were all at similar stages. I am very grateful for the late loss group" ~Group Participant

"I am so grateful to PILSC for existing and offering life-affirming, quality of life saving support" ~ Professional 1:1 Client

"I found lifelong friends, lifelong support" ~Community Outreach Client
