The holiday season can be especially challenging for grieving families. Many children and families are seeking support from the Caring Place to cope with their loss. To meet this increased need, we're looking for compassionate volunteers to join our team in the coming year.

We're hosting two informational meetings in January:

  • Tuesday, January 14th, 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM
  • Wednesday, January 15th, 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM

Both meetings will be held at the Caring Place and will include a boxed meal.

Please RSVP by emailing me at sheena.shannon@highmark.com to let me know which meeting (if either) you can attend. I look forward to hearing from you!
