Thank you for attending!

This past weekend about 70 people gathered in support of our first Give Grief a Voice art exhibition and benefit. We heard from folks throughout the night about how touched they are by the project and the work are we doing to support bereaved families. 

None of this would be possible without the generosity of so many people. This includes people in attendance at the event, those who are telling others about the project, and folks who have already donated! 

Fundraising Results

We are more than half way to our fundraising goal for this program - we had about $2000 in donations ahead of the event, the event brought in another $2500, and we have a corporate matching commitment for another $1000. This brings us to about $5,500! 

Buzzy's Bees would like to give the gift of story telling and art pieces to another 10 families in 2020 and could use your help gathering the last $4,500. We appreciate donations of all sizes as well as information or leads about grants and matching programs.

Video and event photos

The video we premiered at the event is now available on our Give Grief a Voice page. The video beautifully tells the story of the work we are are doing. Please enjoy, and continue to spread the word. Event photos are also available on our site - with more to be added soon.

These special people made the evening possible
