Non-profit Name: McLaren Visiting Nurse & Hospice

Mission or Goal: We will be Michigan's best value in health care, as defined by quality outcomes and cost.

Main target audience/ recipients: We offer one of the broadest service and product offerings of any home care organization in Michigan. Whether you or a loved one is in need of a wheelchair, physical rehabilitation, or home medical care, we have you covered.

What you wish to do with funds raised:
Camp Forget-Me-Not is a day camp for children who have experienced the death of a family member or other loved one. Please check with your specific regional camp for detailed age ranges. The camp provides grieving children with:

• The opportunity to share their feelings and memories with other children who are coping with similar loss.

• Creative educational activities to help children understand their feelings of grief and loss.

• The chance to remember their loved ones and honor their expressions of grief.

• A fun weekend with other children who understand, so they do not feel alone in their grief.

Grief Camp is much more than a summer camp. Each year, over 150 children from all over Michigan gather for a weekend of fun, fishing, reflection, and closure. All of the campers have experienced some type of loss, not just through hospice. McLaren Visiting Nurse & Hospice provides this camp for grieving children regardless of how the loss has affected them.
