25-WORD DESCRIPTION:
Cultivating a grief-affirming community through companionship and understanding so every person feels valued and embraced as they navigate loss.
HOW WE USE YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS:
- $10 goes to the supplies our volunteer sewers use in crafting one handmade weighted memorial bear. These comfort bears serve as tangible comfort items to forever remember a lost pregnancy or infant.
- $30 goes to training materials and education for one community member in our Grief Facilitator Training. This experience is offered quarterly at no cost to CFH volunteers, who then use this training to facilitate our peer-to-peer support groups for youth, families, and adults.
- $100 provides snacks for a full eight-week Grief Support Series, a soft place to explore their grief and connect with others who "get it" at no-cost for children and caregivers alike.
A STORY FROM OUR AGENCY:
Direct quote from an adult grief series participant: "I liked hearing about others' feelings; it helps me realize we are all going through similar things.”
