April is National Volunteer Month 🤍

We want to take a moment to say thank you to each and every one of our incredible volunteers. You are the heart of what we do, and because of you, we are able to create spaces for hope, healing, and new beginnings every single day.

As a peer support grief nonprofit, our mission is only possible because of people like you who show up, hold space, and walk alongside others in their grief journeys. Your compassion and dedication allow us to keep our programs free and accessible to those who need them most.

We truly couldn’t do this without all of you. Thank you for making New Hope possible. 💙

Tonight was Week 8 of our “From Grief to New Hope” Spring Workshop. This week is such a special week of this foundational program as together we navigate the road ahead and spend time paying tribute to those that we love that are gone too soon. Thank you to our staff and volunteers for making this program possible, and thank you to our participants for entrusting us with your pain and loss. Thank you to Ward Church for hosting this program year after year, and to our sponsors and grantors that gave generously. New Hope is here to provide support in the days ahead. “Healing begins when hope is found.”

This Siblings Day, we honor siblings who are deeply missed and forever loved. We hold space for those growing up without their sibling beside them and recognize the lifelong bond that grief cannot break. 🤍

💙💙💙

Today is National Siblings Day. While it’s a time to recognize sibling relationships, it can be especially difficult for children who are grieving the death of a sibling. An estimated 963,000 children will experience the death of a sibling before adulthood (Judi’s House, 2025). The NACG recognizes this reality and extends our support to those missing a sibling today.

Grief can feel deeply isolating, yet it quietly connects us through shared understanding. Compassion grows in this space. Even in the hardest moments, there is comfort in knowing others have walked this path, holding the same emotions and healing in their own time. You are never truly alone in what you’re feeling. There is strength in that connection. 🌿
