The Lighthouse for Grieving Children

Adjusting to life after a death is hard to understand, impossible to imagine. With the help of donations like yours, the safe space at Lighthouse gives children and their families the security to express themselves, to have their feelings accepted, validated and to build hope for their future.

For over 20 years, the The Lighthouse has been the only agency in the GTA offering open ended peer support groups to grieving children and their families at no cost. We are 95% self funded so rely on the generosity of our community. Please consider making a donation to help Lighthouse.  In 2019, over 350 participants attended our groups, at a cost of $1700 per participant each year, so fundraising is essential.  

Ask family and friends to support you on your pledge page.

We are in this together, and as a community we can reassure grieving families that they are not alone. Josie, who attends a Children's Group, recently shared how being with her virtual support group makes her feel.
