THE DRAGONFLY PROJECT

The Dragonfly Project is a registered 501( c )(3) non-profit that sends condolence cards carrying a message of hope to people who are grieving. Our organization consists of volunteers who look up names in obituaries and help put together and mail packets out to people who are grieving; usually 3 to 6 months after the death has occurred. Each packet contains a condolence card, a copy of the dragonfly story printed on the inside cover and a dragonfly keychain.

Each year, thousands of dragonfly packets are sent throughout the United States and other countries to individuals who are grieving the loss of a loved one. Each dragonfly packet, which contains a condolence card, the dragonfly story and a dragonfly keychain, costs $4.50 to make and distribute. The Dragonfly Project is operated by volunteers and a board of directors. This includes a focus on military outreach and also a school outreach program for schools who have experienced losses through violence.
