HUSTLE FOR HOPE 5K - THE SEATTLE WAY
April is HIE awareness month, and this year was our fifth Hustle for Hope 5K that we participated in. Not only did we participate, but we also hosted again this year for Seattle. It was created by the nonprofit organization Hope for HIE to increase awareness, education, and support. Olivia was diagnosed with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy at birth. It's a type of birth injury causing newborn brain damage that is caused by oxygen deprivation and limited blood flow. We are hoping to transform a diagnosis that is so devastating to families, into now being a way to connect with them for added support on this journey. This year we raised $3,000 and had 82 in person participants. Thank you to everyone who made this happen!
