"Help Save the Next Girl" campaign
RICHMOND, VA (WWBT) - Two mothers who will spend this Mother's Day without their daughters, are coming together to make sure no other family experiences their pain.
Kim Nelson and Gil Harrington were in Richmond today to "Help Save the Next Girl."
It's a non-profit organization started in honor of Morgan Harrington, who was abducted and murdered in 2009.
The group promotes personal safety and awareness amongst young people to prevent violence.
Harrington tells us the group has helped her cope with her grief since losing her daughter.
"It neutralizes some of our hurt to know that we might be protecting other precious beloved's for other families," said Harrington.
Nelson is the mother of Bethany Decker, who went missing in 2011.
She told us her faith helps keep her hope of finding her daughter alive.
