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. This group has provided Mourning Hope with significant 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 forces for a cocktail party, generously hosted by Mourning Hope volunteers, to celebrate friendships and a legacy of charitable giving.
