Welcome to Monroe’s only 5k dedicated to helping families in the nICU

This day is dedicated to raising $25,000 for the Glory’s Garden foundation. Those funds will go towards helping 75 NICU families this year.

Glory and her family spent 308 days in the St. Francis and Children’s Hospital of New Orleans NICU in 2023 & 2024. There were very few organizations available to help in their time of need. We honor Glory’s memory by helping others the way she once needed help.

Thank you for your partnership.
