About the Event
Walk to Remember is an annual fundraising event that has brought our community together for 28 years. It’s a meaningful day where we walk, run, or roll in memory of our loved ones, share stories, and raise vital funds to support our small charity. Every donation helps us continue providing compassionate grief and loss support to those who need it.

Thank you for your unending support through my grief journey and for helping me rebuild my self esteem and confidence. This organization is one of the things I am grateful for and you have become part of my success story.

Join us on Saturday, September 20 at Lakeside Park in Mississauga (2268 Lakeshore Rd W) for a powerful day of connection and remembrance. In partnership with Bereaved Families of Ontario - Toronto (BFOT), we invite you to journey alongside others who understand and find comfort in community.
Grief can be an isolating journey, but no one should have to navigate it alone. The Centre for Grief and Healing (CFGH) provides free grief peer support to individuals in Halton/Peel and across Ontario - but we can’t do it without you. Your donation directly impacts the sustainability of our programs. For every $8,230 raised, we can run a support group, creating a safe space for healing. Just $207 trains a new volunteer, equipping them to provide compassionate care to those in need.
