Bring all of it. We'll walk with you.

griefy mama is a space for parents who've lived through the worst day(s) of their lives — the day(s) their child(ren) died.

Join a griefy walk My child just died

Draft mission, in your words

IRL, community, resources for any parent (and eventually those who care for them) who is now part of this alternate world, grief education.

Courtney: this is straight from your email, untouched. Shape it into whatever feels true.

griefy walks

About once a month, somewhere new

A small group of parents, walking together. Come to one, or come to all of them. New parents are always welcome.

If your child died recently

You don't have to know where to start.

Come to one walk and say nothing. Send Courtney a message. Read for a while. There's no wrong way in, and no one will ask you for anything.

Send Courtney a note

My why.

I'm Courtney. Alexander's mama.

"Community doesn't take away the hurt, but it can make living with it feel a little less lonely."

How this stays free

Free for every parent. Carried by all of us.

No one is turned away for money, and no one has to explain. If this has helped you, chip in monthly or once. If you can't right now, you're just as welcome.

$0I'm here for now. That's a real answer.$25a month. Helps keep us walking.$50a month. Keeps the whole thing going.$100a month. Lets us say yes to more parents.

Carry a parent

$35 a month covers one parent's place. They won't be asked to explain, and you won't be told who. Give in your child's name if you'd like. We will say it.

Where it goes
