We do not limit our giving to only hospitals. We want to initiate a Continuous Circle of Giving. In this circle we will include many other bereavement organizations . Teeny Tears was first on our list of charities to donate to. Next will be Calvin's Hats. Each time we give to a different charity we will feature them on our blog. We want to give them the recognition they deserve and inspire others to give.
"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares."
- Henri Nouwen
