Gilda’s Club Grand Rapids provides age-group appropriate cancer support groups, education, healthy lifestyle activities, and social events for children, their families, and friends who have been touched by a cancer diagnosis.

Our program also provides grief support for children, their families, and friends who are experiencing any kind of death (including due to cancer or other illness, accident, murder, suicide, etc.). Children may participate in weekly groups that are developmentally appropriate and psycho-educational in nature. Each group is highly interactive and includes discussion and activities. During the same time, the adults accompanying the children may also participate in structured sharing time.

Gilda's Club is a NO CHARGE cancer and grief support community for children, adults, families and friends. We operate on charitable community donations and grants.
