Experience Camps

Every Thursday through December we're spotlighting one of our crowdfunders for this year's annual campaign to raise $500,000. This week we're featuring Experience Camps’ volunteer Frankie Shlain who has already raised $5,000 for us.

70% of people said they’re unsure what to do or say when someone they care about is grieving. And many grieving people feel pressure to continue traditions, which can leave them feeling anxious, guilty, and overwhelmed.

“When the day comes around for your person who died, let it all out: cry, feel everything, and even lay in bed all day. But also try to find some time to celebrate your person’s life in ways big or small.” - Louie, a camper of ours whose dad died when she was six.
