Wonder Women

At the Mourning Hope Grief Center, we believe everyone has a superpower within.

In 2014, several Mourning Hope volunteers created a new event for the Center. This fundraiser was to have very little overhead whereby the majority of the proceeds would directly benefit the bereaved.

As Mourning Hope Wonder Women, individuals are asked to donate $100 on an annual basis. Over the last decade, this group has provided Mourning Hope with more than $241,000 in operating funds dedicated to grieving children, adults and families served by the Center. Participants are not charged for grief support services at Mourning Hope, and the Wonder Women donations ensure these programs and resources are available for everyone in our community.

As a thank you, participating Wonder Women are annually invited to join together for a cocktail party, generously hosted by Mourning Hope volunteers, to celebrate friendships and a legacy of charitable giving.

One of the most meaningful moments of this campaign is the annual cocktail party, where we come together in a celebration of our collective impact. Wonder Women enjoy an evening of music, refreshments and connection with fellow superheroes. The event is generously hosted by Mourning Hope volunteers, ensuring that every contribution from the Wonder Women directly supports programs and services for grieving children and families in Lincoln and beyond.

2025 Wonder Women

The Wonder Women community continues to grow and evolve, now more than 370 members strong. Many invite their daughters, mothers and sisters to join, creating a legacy of giving. Others sponsor a beloved woman who has died, honoring her memory in a meaningful way. However you choose to participate, we honor and welcome you. This year, we’re boldly campaigning for at least 375 members to join or renew their commitment. Your tax-deductible donation of $100 will help ensure Mourning Hope’s services can continue well into the future so that no one has to grieve alone.

As a thank-you for their generosity, all 2025 Wonder Women are invited to this year’s cocktail party to connect and celebrate our unified efforts. Please save the date: Wednesday, September 3, at the Country Club of Lincoln.
