Supporter Magazine: Spring 2017

Help support families grieving the loss of their loved ones

Every day nine children are bereaved of a parent or sibling in South Australia.

Each year AnglicareSA holds specialised FREE Star Bear weekend camps for children 5-17 years who have lost a parent, sibling or significant person. The camps help children understand that grieving is a normal part of life and assist them to learn how to cope with their grief. No other program like this exists in South Australia and our camps are widely sought after. However, AnglicareSA receives no government funding for this program. For Star Bear camps to continue we need to raise $60,000. Your donation is crucial. Please donate today and help support families grieving the loss of a loved one. For more information and to read one family’s story of how Star Bear helped them to cope with their grief, visit anglicaresa.com.au
