Buddy Volunteer

"My favorite thing about camp is the support. Watching the oldest boys get out of their own way to support each other, the oldest girls, and the youngest kids is the magic. If we just work to help them express and live in their empathy we’ve done it all."

Buddy Volunteer

"I enjoy meeting new people and I enjoy the energy of the kiddos, so it helps me maintain connections to those things. I view the set of things that Kate’s Club stands for – compassion, empathy, an appreciation of life’s ups and downs – as one of the load-bearing “pillars” of my life."

Buddy Volunteer

"I keep coming back to Kate’s Club because grief is a journey, and these kids need buddies to stand shoulder to shoulder with."
