My Nonprofit Reviews

SSLF is an amazing organization. No one wants to be a widow or widower. This is an organization made up of Widow's helping other Widow's. They know and understand what each other is going thru more than anyone else could possibly understand.

As a friend of Michele Neff Hernandez it was so very hard to see her going thru the loss of Phil. We couldn't help her thru the grieving process. So when she met another widow and they became friends it was obvious how they "got It" they understood each other. And from there the wheels started turning for Michele and SSLF was formed.

It is unbelievable how many widows SSLF helps. Widow Match was started because of the friendship Michele and Michelle (yes the same name) formed and were totally able to understood each others needs.
When she decided to start Camp Widow I was a little skeptical. But I have to say I volunteered last summer and there are no words to describe it. A camp for widows you would think would be a downer, but I came away from there feeling so uplifted. These men and women are amazing. Sure there were tears and times of grieving, but it was like they had a weekend to let themselves go, to relax, to share things that only another widow or widower could understand. There were workshops, books, a 5K run/walk, & there was laughter and dancing. It was amazing!
