Fund raisers for the Josh Rojas Foundation: We will post any fund raisers for our foundation in this section, so please see below for our the Josh Bouts and the Used Soccer Equipment Drive.
Area Grief Events: When we were looking for support and guidance, we had no idea where to look for events that could assist us while we traveled on this agonizing journey. When we hear of an event that we think might benefit the grieving community, we will place the information in this section. However, be sure to visit The Compassionate Friends website www.tcfrochester.org or the Lifetime Care website www.lifetimecare.org for events, as well. Please let us know if you are aware of any events that might benefit our bereaved community. We will gladly add the event to our list. They will also be posted under our Support Advice section.
Upcoming Grief Events/Workshops:
Writing: A Way Through Grief - People who are looking for active ways to express and manage challenging grief reactions will find this class to be helpful. Topics will include tips on journaling, reprints, suggested books (such as Transcending Loss) and support for personal exploration. No previous writing skills are necessary! This program is limited to 12 participants. For more information and to register, contact Theo at (585) 214-1414. 1st and 3rd Tuesdays beginning on March 16, 7-9 p.m.
Cost: $5 per session.
