Event Info

The Jordyn’s Light Family Fun Day & Raffle Extravaganza began as a small, heartfelt gathering created by a mother with lived experience navigating pregnancy and infant loss. Established from a place of personal grief and deep love, Jordyn’s Light was built with the goal of bringing much-needed resources, remembrance, and support to families within our community. Over the years, the event has grown into a space where remembrance and joy exist side by side — a place for families to honor their babies while also creating new memories together. As we plan for our 3rd Annual Jordyn’s Light Family Fun Day & Raffle Extravaganza, our goal is not only to increase our fundraising impact, but to expand the experience itself. This year, we are intentionally adding more family-friendly activities, enhanced children’s spaces, meaningful memorial elements, and moments of reflection throughout the day — creating an event that feels both uplifting and deeply honoring. There are many ways to support Jordyn’s Light, and for those interested in our broader vision, we invite you to view our official Givebutter fundraiser for full details on our 2026 fundraising goals and how funds will be used. To bring this vision fully to life, we truly need the support of our community, and we know Western New York has the heart, compassion, and generosity to help make this our most engaging, thoughtful, and impactful event yet.
