In this heartwarming episode of Cry it Out Loud!, we dive deep into the Bursting Bubble 5k Walk & Run—an event that is more than just a race. It’s a movement of healing, remembrance, and connection. Whether you’re in York, PA, Dallas, TX, Kenmore, WA, Ramsey, MN, or New York City, NY, or even participating virtually, this event is about supporting families who’ve experienced the loss of a child.

Our guest today is Kelsi Hagimoto, our Washington State Ambassador, who has been an incredible volunteer for over a year, spreading our mission and helping to raise awareness across Washington state. We talk with Kelsi about her journey, how she got involved, and how you can make a difference by volunteering or becoming a personal or corporate sponsor.

Key topics we’ll cover:

• 🏃‍♀️ The Bursting Bubble 5k Event: From York, PA to Dallas, TX, Kenmore, WA, Ramsey, MN, and New York City, NY, plus the virtual option, discover how this race is bringing communities together in remembrance.
