JONESBORO, AR (KAIT) -   The Third Annual "Mothers of Angels" walk is set to begin early Saturday morning.

The walk starts at the front entrance of Craighead  Forest Park near the flower garden.

"Mothers for Angels" founder Dora Edings says proceeds from the walk will go toward the "Mothers of Angels" Memorial Garden.  It's currently under construction at Craighead Forest Park.

"We need a place for parents to go where they can sit and contemplate and have some serene time with their own thoughts." Edings said. "This garden is going to be a place where we can put our children's names."

Registration begins Saturday at 9 a.m.
