We’re very proud to share that PaRC Place CEO Kimberly Stokka Merendino spoke today at Home for Every Child: The National Pediatric Palliative Care Home Summit.

Thank you to the National Center for Pediatric Palliative Care Homes for convening leaders and advocates around a shared vision: ensuring that children with medical complexities, and the families who love and care for them, have access to compassionate, family-centered support.

It means so much to help bring PaRC Place into this important national conversation and to share our commitment to caring for medically complex children and their families across Colorado. We are building toward a future where families have the respite, palliative, and end-of-life care they deserve, close to home, with dignity and compassion.

Huge thank you to PureWest for choosing PaRC Place as their charity partner for the Colfax Marathon and helping raise more than $11,000 to support families in our community! 🏃‍♀️💙

We are incredibly grateful for every runner, donor, volunteer, and supporter who made this possible. Special shoutout to our founder Kim and board member Grace for lacing up and completing the 5K in support of PaRC Place!

This weekend was such a beautiful reminder of what community looks like — people coming together, showing up for one another, and making a real difference for children and families.

Thank you, PureWest, for believing in our mission and running alongside us every step of the way! 🎉

🏃‍♀️💙 Running with purpose. Running for families.

This year, the PureWest Running Team is taking on the Denver Colfax Marathon to support PaRC Place—and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Every mile they run helps bring compassionate respite and end-of-life care to children with life-limiting conditions and the families who love them. Through PaRC Place, families receive up to 28 nights of respite care each year, creating space for rest, connection, and dignity during life’s hardest moments.

The Colfax Marathon is more than a race—it’s one of the largest running weekends in the Rocky Mountain region, bringing together thousands of runners to move for something bigger than themselves.

👏 To the PureWest team: thank you for showing up, putting in the miles, and turning your passion into impact.
