The Tiny Footprints Gala started in 2016 by Kristina Oriold and Jen Woods. Kristina’s loss of her twin daughter inspired her to create the event, and her best friend, Jen stood by her as co-founder. Over the next 7 years, hundreds of courageous and hard working members joined the planning committee. This group, each who have been touched by pregnancy and/or infant loss are an integral part of the success of the gala each year. The gala has seen tremendous support through partners, silent auction items and attendees, thus raising over $600,000, helping fund pregnancy and infant loss programs in Calgary.
