NEW Announcement: STILL Project Partnership
OC Walk to Remember is all about sharing so it’s no wonder we are so proud to announce our partnership with the STILL Project. Beginning June 15, 2013 all contributions made to the STILL Project film fund are tax deductible. We are honored to support Carrie and Jonathan Pascual for producing a feature length documentary film committed to breaking the silence about pregnancy loss and infant death.
Carrie Fisher-Pascual says, “Jonathan and I are very proud of the STILL Project’s partnership with OC Walk to Remember. On a personal level OC Walk to Remember has been a pivotal part of our grief and healing work, but we have also seen first hand the amazing impact of the organization on the Southern California community. When we decided in June of 2012 that we were going to commit to making this film a reality, the first phone call I made was to Kristyn von-Rotz because we have so much respect for the work that OC Walk does and I knew her feedback would be incredibly valuable. The relationship between STILL Project and OC Walk to Remember is such a great fit because what we hope to accomplish with the film directly aligns with the mission of OC Walk. We feel very fortunate that we have this opportunity to nurture that relationship and extend our reach.
