Support Us This NTGD
We humbly ask for your support. Our only fundraiser, North Texas Giving Day (NTGD), just started and runs through midnight on Thursday, September 18th. We are honored to be one of the approved nonprofits to participate in this amazing event. You can click here to donate or search for North Texas Giving Day: Grief and Loss Center of North Texas.
Working with children, teens, and adults who are grieving the death of a loved one takes a village. Some of us work directly with our clients. Others work behind the scenes. Others provide financial support, making it possible for us to continue our work. Did you know that our services are free of charge and that we rely on donations to keep our doors open? Our only fundraiser just started and runs through midnight on Thursday, September 17th.
When you donate to the Grief and Loss Center, you truly make a difference in the lives of scores of children, teens, and adults. You touch lives through every one of our programs.
Kindergartners through high school seniors grieving the death of a parent, sibling, or other loved one come to SAM’s (Same As Me) each month to be with others their age who have also experienced the death of someone special. They discover they are not alone as they share their stories and process their grief through activities and group times especially designed for their age group. As they meet, their parents and guardians join together to learn how to support them best and to share their own stories.
Our adult groups provide emotional support and a better understanding of grief to over a hundred adults each month. We offer three groups designed for parents who have experienced the death of a child – Child Loss, Senior Adult Moms, and Child Loss by Suicide. We offer three groups for Spouse/Partner Loss, including one for young/median adults, one for older adults, and one for senior adults. Young adults through the age of 35 find support in our Young Adult Group, while median and older adults attend our Family and Friends Group. Our Homicide Group provides support to loved ones of those who died by homicide. In addition to the group, we also attend the trials with them whenever possible to provide additional support.
Almost 80 percent of the 3000+ clients we’ve served since the center's 2011 inception are underserved and would not have access to grief support without your financial gifts. We humbly ask that you become part of our village by making a financial contribution to the Grief and Loss Center during North Texas Giving Day. If you aren’t comfortable making an online donation, you are welcome to send a check to the Grief and Loss Center of North Texas, 4316 Abrams Road, Dallas, TX 75214.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for joining our village. You are appreciated!
