The Unforgettables Foundation (TUF) has helped hundreds of families in what may be the worst time of their life: the death of a child. One of the special events that's held every year is the Lights for Little Lives Memorial Walk on Dec. 31, New Year's Eve. New Year's often means a new beginning, and even though a new beginning may occur, a child's life will never be forgotten. This event begins at 3:30 p.m. where families come out to remember their little ones, then return home at approximately 8 p.m. to enjoy the comfort of family and friends as they ring in the new year. This particular year, a fire is being lit with a special match. That match is your donation! For every dollar donated, a dollar will be matched. This match is being made by a special donor couple and supporter of the Unforgettables organization, who generously offered a year-end gift matching of $15,000. They themselves have endured the loss of a child and empathize with the sorrow, depression and even divorce, which so often doubles the disaster of a family experiencing a child's death. Make November and December a time to count your blessings and make your gift count twice as much with this unforgettable "match." Please talk it over with your family, friends, colleagues and neighbors, and join TUF for the annual Lights for Little Lives Memorial Walk on Dec. 31 as TUF celebrates and commemorates the children who have left us this year and in the past. Partner with us as we Strike the Match to bring a bigger flame and a much better life for a family struggling to stay alive! [END] The Unforgettables Foundation (TUF) exists to lift and light up lives, lighten burdens, and keep the fire going! Our mostly volunteer group, working together for over 15 years, is committed to keeping families alive in the face of the worst that can happen: we offer help and hope when children die. The Unforgettables Foundation believes that every child is unforgettable and that in the worst time, each child deserves a timely, dignified and loving burial, whether the family can afford it or not. From now and into December, TUF volunteers and donors have a chance to build this transforming fire much bigger as a major donor couple who have lost a child have generously offered a year-end gift matching of $15,000 to TUF. Donor's gifts will therefore strike a match to a much bigger flame! Your $200 year-end tax deductible donation to us will explode to $400, or $1,000 builds to $2,000. To double the size of your gift during this special giving time will help save families from debt, depression and divorce, which so often doubles the disaster of a family experiencing a child’s death. Make it a November and December to remember by counting your blessings and giving a gift of fire! Please talk it over with your family, friends, colleagues and neighbors, and join TUF for the annual Lights for Little Lives Memorial Walk on December 31 as TUF celebrates and commemorates the children who have left us this year and in the past. Partner with us as we Strike the Match to bring a bigger flame and a much better life for a family struggling to stay alive!
