Please join me and my walking team in this fundraising effort to benefit Kara. Kara's Annual Walk To Remember is a great opportunity to walk in memory of a loved one or honor someone grieving the loss of a loved one. Additionally, all the funds raised by our annual walk will support Kara's programs. 

Kara provides compassionate support to people of all ages on their journey through grief so that they can move toward renewed hope and meaning. Having experienced the death of my mom when I was a teenager,  I am very appreciative of the benefits and services that Kara provides to the community and those experiencing their own grief journey through their Youth & Family offerings, Adult Program offerings as well as Camp Erin!

I have had the opportunity to be a Camp Counselor for Camp Erin the past three summers. Thanks to donations like yours, Kara is able to sponsor and send 80 children (ages 6-18) to camp for a long weekend. It is an amazing experience for all who attend.

I am confident that many in our community can benefit from their services and I am inspired, in honor of my mom, Eileen Quinn, to walk in her name and raise money to support Kara's programs and offerings.

Won't you join me either in walking with our team on September 28th or sponsoring one of our walkers?

In love and light and with complete gratitude,
Liz Quinn
