In Memoriam: Join us in Honoring the Sweet Angels lost to GM1 Gangliosidosis
Every year, the Cure GM1 Foundation joins the Compassionate Friends Worldwide Candle Lighting ceremony in remembering and honoring the precious angels and families impacted by GM1 gangliosidosis.
The Compassionate Friends candle lighting event takes place every year on the second Sunday in December. The event offers a way for families and friends to honor those children in their lives who left too soon. Hundreds of thousands of people around the world, united in loss, participate in the event each year.
Each year, the ceremony is on a December evening, at 7 p.m. local time.
