Baby Steps 5k Run/Walk Kalamazoo

🍼 Event Overview

This race is in honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day (which is October 15, though we're running/walking in September when the weather is hopefully nicer for being outdoors!). Miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss are sad realities for many families in the United States and around the world. Proceeds from this race will be donated to the Star Legacy Foundation, Amos' Anchors, and Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep.
