Give the gift of counselling this Christmas. Help increase our service by an additional 339 sessions or an extra 85 people supported.

Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

For a percentage of the population their circumstances mean they can find ways through their grief without professional support. However, for many others this is not the case and they may feel caught in a complicated, confusing, overwhelming, exhausting space.

Finding a way through can be a difficult task. The counsellors at Grief Support Services offer sessions to help individuals and families/whanau talk about their loss and grief in a caring way to help make sense of, and manage, the changes that are taking place.

We have set an annual fundraising goal of $40,000.00 to be raised through alternative funding strategies. This translates to an additional 339 sessions or an extra 85 individuals or families/whānau supported.

Your help through our annual "Give the Gift of Counselling" Christmas appeal will contribute to our aim of increasing the number of individuals and families/whānau supported within our community.

All donations over $25 receive a set of 15 custom designed gift labels (while stocks last and you can opt out). Artwork has been designed exclusively for us by local Tauranga artist Paulene Longley from Flossiphy - Watercolour Artist, Surface Pattern & Fabric Designer. @Flossiphy. Please note that if you wish to keep your donation anonymous then we are not able to send cards.

On behalf of the team at Grief Support Services, thank you for your support.
