"In my hardest moments, COHA provided a light amongst the dark."

Through counselling, a spousal loss grief group, and wellness programs like Reiki and yoga, Yasmine found something she didn't expect: people who truly understood.

This year, she will attend the Butterfly Effect for the very first time. The Butterfly Effect is a community gathering to honour those we've lost and to be reminded that grief is not a journey anyone needs to navigate alone.

📅 Saturday, June 20th | 10:15am – 12:15pm 📍 Falcon Ridge Farms, 579 Rifle Road, Kelowna 🦋

All are welcome. Butterflies are almost sold out. Details at www.hospicecoha.org.

Grief can feel especially isolating for children and youth. There is often a sense that no one around them truly understands.

This summer, COHA is offering a unique opportunity for young people ages 6–18 to find connection, community, and a little lightness out on the water.

🌊 Sponsored by the Kelowna Yacht Club, Two Days on the Lake helps support children and youth who have experienced the loss of a loved one.

Activities include sailing, kayaking, paddle boarding, wake surfing, and tubing, alongside others who truly get it.
📅 Ages 6–12: July 21st & 22nd 📅 Ages 13–18: June 28th & 29th

Space is limited to 8 participants per session. There are no barriers to access this program.

Please contact Andi Harvey, Bereavement Services Coordinator, at 250.763.511 or by email [email protected].

Instead, it is a reminder that grief is a collective, and that we can make a difference in the lives of those navigating grief & loss through the access to COHA’s many services for all ages.

We are so grateful to have Harmony Honda standing beside us in this work and helping us make a difference right here in our community.
