MetroPower, Inc. Awards $1500 to Beloit Regional Hospice’s Grief Support Program Just in Time for the New Year!

Beloit, Wisconsin:  Beloit Regional Hospice was delighted to learn that MetroPower, Inc. had awarded $1500 to their grief support program.  All services of the Beloit Regional Hospice Grief Support Program are available free to anyone in the community who has experienced a loss.

The Beloit Regional Hospice Grief Support Program includes grief support groups, seven of which are available throughout 2017.  Meeting with other people who are experiencing similar circumstances provides encouragement and support.  Coping skills and various aspects of the grieving process will be discussed.  The program also offers bereavement mailings, sent for comfort and inspiration, for a better understanding of the grieving process and to help obtain new coping skills.  For further information or to register for a group, please call (608) 363-7421 and ask for Nicole Morgan, Grief Program Coordinator.

This program also offers support to youth in the area who have suffered a loss through death with the Kids, Teens, N’ Grief Program that was launched in 2006, and expanded upon the formal BRH grief support program that has been in place since 1985.  Grants such as this enable the provision of these services free of charge.

The Kids, Teens N’ Grief Program is hosting groups in eight different schools in the area in January 2017 alone.  Please contact your child’s school or BRH directly for more information.

The goal of MetroPower, Inc.’s grant program is to support 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations in communities where their employees live and work.
