HOW IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
Grief journals give one a safe and judgment-free place to explore jumbled thoughts and feelings, to find ways to remember their loved one, and to record their ongoing journey through grief. By providing these items to the kids who come to The Children's Room, you help us offset our operational costs.
DESCRIPTION
Provide a blank journal for someone to use as they work through their emotions and feelings while grieving a family member.
ITEMS NEEDED
Maybe a donation bin of doing a drive. And perhaps a box if shipping.
