Camp Koala for Grieving Children
Services
We understand that children grieve differently from adults and that grieving has no set timeframe.
A common misconception is that bereavement camps are full of tears and sadness. Not true!
The camp is full of fun, good times, and friendship!
Most kids don't know that they're not alone until they come to camp.
We want each child who attends our camp to leave with a sense of hope, that they are not alone in their grief, and hope that they will continue to seek help in their journey towards healing.
Since loss knows no bounds, our camp is provided free of charge to all camper families.
Who is eligible to attend Camp Koala? Any child aged 7-12, who have experienced the loss of a parent, primary caregiver or sibling is eligible to attend our Youth Camp Koala.

Any teen 13-18 are invited to attend our Teen Camp.
