Sometimes support shows up in small, unexpected ways! Mike from Maxey Elementary School was part of a group of Lincoln Public Schools educators touring Mourning Hope this week, and he stopped to tune all the guitars in our teen room so they're ready to go the next time someone wants to make some music. Just a simple act that demonstrates how we can all use our individual talents to make others feel seen.

Rock on, Mike! 🎸

This Memorial Day, we pause to reflect on love, loss, and remembrance.

At Mourning Hope, we understand the complex emotions this day can bring. Whether you're feeling the collective grief of a nation or dealing with your own personal loss, know that you are not alone.

Today is a reminder of those who are no longer here. The ones we carry in our hearts, whose absence is felt in both big and small moments.

Join us in reflection. Share a story, light a candle, or simply take a moment of silence to honor their memory. In remembrance, we find strength together.

💜Why support Mourning Hope on Give to Lincoln Day? So NO ONE has to grieve alone. In Nebraska, one in every 14 children will experience the death of a parent or sibling before the age of 18... and we believe every single one of them deserves access to support and care. Your gifts help make sure they get it, and that all of our programs are always free to anyone who needs them.

Hope is a team sport, and we need you! Join us today at givetolincoln.com/nonprofits/mourning-hope-grief-center

As we head into graduation weekend, we want to recognize that this joyful time can carry complex emotions for people who are missing someone who should be there, cheering them on.

Watch The Yard has created a beautiful post about the unique grief that can come this time of year, and it's worth your time to read the whole thing. This quote, however, jumped out at us as particularly relevant. Whatever you are carrying with you when you walk across that stage, know that you are seen and supported.

💜Healing always starts with kindness, and Bryan Health sees that in action every day! Mourning Hope is so grateful to have been the recipient of one of the Bryan Health "Beyond 100 Acts of Kindness," which started last year with a thoughtful lunch for our staff and volunteers and continued last week with a surprise donation that will keep the kindness going for children and families as they navigate their own healing journeys.

Thank you to Ashton Wyrick, Senior Director of Government & Community Relations, Michael Johnston, Bryan Medical Center CEO, and all the Bryan staff who spread the kindness our way. We promise to keep passing it on!
