Wings to Soar
Learn, share, laugh, grow. Wings to Soar, a day camp held annually, can help your child or teen deal with the death of a loved one. Experiencing such a loss can be especially difficult for children in today’s fast-moving world. We help them learn about death and cope with their grief in a positive, open and honest way.
By allowing them to interact with others in their peer group who have experienced a loss, we enable them to find strength in this shared experience.
Wings to Soar camp provides a supportive environment with plenty of laughter and fun. Our activities are led by trained hospice professionals and volunteers experienced in working with grieving children and teens. We teach them that grief isn’t about forgetting someone, but about remembering that person with less pain.
Thanks to the generous support we receive from the community, Wings to Soar camp is provided at no cost.
