Shine a Light On SUDC Landmarks
Let's illuminate 200 landmarks worldwide in blue and yellow, which are the official colors of the SUDC Foundation!
Ask your local businesses, libraries, town/city halls, schools, police and fire stations to participate by lighting up their buildings throughout the month of March. Consider illuminating your home in blue and yellow to honor the children who are gone too soon and to acknowledge the resiliency within our SUDC community affected by SUDC.
Post your photos, #ShineALightOnSUDC, tag the SUDC Foundation and ask your followers to share your post to meet our 50,000 shares on social media challenge!
For more details, please email us at: [email protected].
Honoring Black Maternal Health Week (April 11- April 17) and April is National Minority Health Month.
Did you know?
Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood occurs in Black/African American children at a rate more than 2.2 times that of white children. This staggering statistic sheds light on the urgent need to address disparities in healthcare and mental wellness among minority communities.
During this important week and month, let`s come together to advocate for better access to maternal healthcare and mental health resources for Black and minority families. By raising awareness and fostering support, we can strive towards equitable care and better outcomes for all.

This March, 142 landmarks across the globe illuminated in blue and yellow, the official colors of the Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC) Foundation to #shinealightonsudc in honor of #sudcawareness month, nearly doubling the amount of landmarks that participated last year! We humbly thank each and every landmark that participated in this initiative, for their commitment to raising awareness and honoring all of the children gone too soon.
A special thank you to @NoteworthyPerformers and @Catherinemaoo for this beautiful rendition of "What was I made for?" by Billie Eilish, performed in honor of all families affected by SUDC.

In moments of happiness I always feel the greatest pain. I ugly cried when we found Teddy’s brick. I mourn for the loss of him, and for all the fun in our lives that he is no longer able to be present for. I miss you, my beautiful boy. More than anything in the whole world, I miss you. But it makes my heart smile that you will forever be with us at Citifield. Our happy place…
