Where Hope & Healing Live
The GriefCare Place opened its doors in June of 1997. It offers a SAFE PLACE where those grieving the death of a loved one can find support, education, understanding, and a caring place to heal. The center serves individuals of all ages, offers a home-like atmosphere and is a non-denominational faith based organization where those of strong faith or those of none can come comfortably.
The GriefCare Place educates participants about grief and provides caring volunteers who walk alongside and companion them during the grieving/healing process.
The GriefCare Place charges no fees and is funded entirely by fundraising events, donations, and memorial gifts. Since it is a charitable, non-profit organization, all donations are tax deductible under IRS section 501(c)(3). Financial support is a continuous need, greatly appreciated, and is responsibly spent.
The GriefCare Place is announcing a public fundraising effort: the sale of customized, commemorative bricks to be placed in their beautiful Memorial Garden.
Affordable at $100 each, multiple bricks can be placed together to create a lasting family tribute. The Memorial Garden is open at all times to anyone and is a serene place for contemplation and refreshing.
All proceeds will help sustain grief support groups and programs without
cost and for as long as needed at The GriefCare Place.
For more information on this fundraiser, and other opportunities to support The GriefCare Place, call 330-686-1750 or email griefcareplace@gmail.com.
We are currently holding all of our in person support group meetings and gatherings.
Any time Summit County gets rated in PURPLE status, we will temporarily suspend our in person meetings. All updates to our in person meeting schedule will be communicated here as well as our calendar of meetings and events found on our Events Calendar page.
We understand that this has been a very challenging time for you trying to deal with not only your grief journey but the isolation and anxiety from the pandemic as well. We are looking forward to seeing you when we safely come together in person to encourage, support and provide some TLC.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our office at 330.686.1750.
Though death robs you of the presence and companionship of your loved one, it never can steal the precious love you shared together.
That place of inner sanctum always will be part of who you are, whatever the future.
Your life journey is greater, richer, and fuller for having loved the one lost to you in death.
The time and space you shared in love is both sacred and eternal.
Though with death you lose sight of your loved one, love is always in plain view.
Death only separates;
it does not take love away!
