TMT HOSPICE- CHILDREN'S GRIEF CAMP (BUDDIES NEEDED)
ORGANIZATION: The Medical Team Hospice
Please visit the new page to apply.
About:
Camp TMT is a safe place for children to learn to cope with their own grief and to know that many other children are coping with the loss of loved ones. Staff and trained volunteers- (our staff / MSWs) provide planned activities to help children grieve and express themselves in a safe and healthy manner. Campers will participate in fun activities like a rock climbing wall, swimming, arts/crafts, and a memorial service to include family members will be held on the final day of camp.
Volunteer role:
Your role as a volunteer will be to provide support and comfort to a camper. You will be a "buddy" to a camper I assign you to. You will go with your camper to the grief support groups. Then, engage them with the fun activities that camp has to offer.
