We are all grieving. But we are also reaching out, to acknowledge that we are still here and that we are not alone and that we possess deep wells of love and compassion from which we can touch another's heart. So much inspiration is found in Connecticut communities and around the world. Whether a quiet, solitary gesture or a heartfelt family project, I do hope that you find your way to something that helps you move from heartache into sweet, beautiful, healing connection.
- I found this excellent list of ways to send your condolences and support the organizations that are bringing grief counseling and comfort to the Newtown community.
- The Sandy Hook PTA will be creating a winter wonderland at the children's new school in nearby Monroe. On their behalf, the Connecticut PTSA is organizing Snowflakes for Sandy Hook.
- Many communities across the country are organizing teddy bear drives, backpack drives and collecting art supplies and healing books for children and their parents. If you have gifts to share, you can email newtownboe@gmail.com to make arrangements for your donations.
