    Description

    SandCastles Camp Volunteers

    Come Join The SandCastles Camp Team!

    SandCastles, a grief support program for children, teens, and their families offered through Henry Ford Hospice, seeks volunteers for SandCastles Camp. SandCastles provides a supportive environment for children and teens, ages 3 to 18, and their families who have experienced the death of a loved one. Families come together for nurturing and strength as they journey through their world of grief. Volunteering for SandCastles Camp is a rewarding way to contribute your time and support for children in grades two through twelve if you are unable to make the one-year commitment. Camp is held one weekend a year with SandCastles Camp 2026 being held August 14th - 16th at Camp Tamarack in Ortonville, MI. Areas of need are weekend group facilitator, helper, check-in on Friday evening, and help with the Sunday picnic. Training is provided for those who wish to be group facilitators or helpers.
