Have you ever felt the overwhelming grief of losing someone you loved? The pain of a family member,
friend, or acquaintance’s death is a challenge that can often leave us feeling isolated and lonely in our
mourning. But there is a place available locally where you can share that grief with others.
Lory’s Place provides support groups and programs led by professional bereavement staff and trained
volunteer facilitators at no cost. These programs allow children and adults to interact with peers who
have suffered similar loss, or who are experiencing anticipatory grief.
In 2020, Lory’s Place embarked on an expansion project within the adjacent facility to create a dedicated
area for adult programming. The new space will encompass opportunities for grieving adults to engage life
with a new perspective, learn new skills, and meet new friends, all in a safe and supportive environment.
Be a part of something special
With generous community support, and a matching grant from the Frederick S. Upton
Foundation, almost $600,000 has been raised to date in support of this project.
We need your help to meet the remaining $5,000 goal. Please consider being part
of something special in our community and supporting the expansion project as
we work to create a new normal for those facing grief.
