Birgitte Bartlett
Co-founder
In 2005, when Lorna's niece, Tamara Chipman, went missing, Birgitte was there for the family, helping in searches, providing food and any support they needed.
During a walk for justice along the Highway of Tears, Birgitte and Lorna were brainstorming on what more they can do. As an avid runner, Birgitte wanted to do more than walk; she wanted to run! This dream became a reality when they trained and participated as Team Tears to Hope in the 2018 Vancouver Sun Run.
That team started a ripple effect and in 2019, Birgitte's ultimate dream of a 10km relay run along the Highway of Tears happened.
