I came to Mary's Place several years ago because as a parent and teacher I understood the importance of providing support for grieving children. I wanted to be a part of an organization which does such important work. Mary's Place provides this service with sensitivity and a commitment to the integrity of its mission. Volunteers are trained, guided and supported by the staff to insure that the children and their families receive the best possible care.
Each Sunday that we meet includes volunteer meetings, work with the children and a chance to catch up with their families. Grief is a life long journey and as volunteers we are privileged to accompany these children along the way.

The "results" from Mary's Place are often hard to define. However over the several years that I have been a part of this wonderful organization I have seen many children and families find ways to express their grief in a safe haven and then find ways to continue living with the memory of the deceased person held closely.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would love to find a way to ensure the financial future for Mary"s Place. Then we could continue to expand the services we offer, both in terms of the numbers of children we can serve and in the outreach programs we might make available to the broader community.
