For our guest speaker today we had Kaye Lani Rafko-Wilson ,Executive Director of Gabby’s Grief Center (formerly Gabby’s Ladder.
Gabby’s Ladder was formed in 2001 by members of the Community who had a dream to help those who found themselves grieving for the loss of loved ones.
The wait for help had reached a 3 week wait, so with the help of the Board they were able to hire a new employee for consultation. In fact they were able to hold the 1st Memorial this week
At present they are servicing 197 active participants
As with any non-profit Organization, they could use some financial help. This is where we come into the picture.
At no cost to you as a member we can secure monies for Gabby’s Grief Center by simply doing a survey that I will be emailing to you.
There will be 2 pages from hundred X Causes with instructions.
