Gilda's Club is such an awesome resource to have in Grand Rapids. The offer support groups for grief related instances. They also have many unique workshops available for people of all ages. I have been attending their young adult grief support group for around 5 months now and I really enjoy it. It's extremely helpful to connect with others going through similar situations to you. Their staff is so kind and knowledgeable and I have met some awesome people here! They offer suppers on the same day that they hold support groups that are either cooked by their volunteers or donated from outside groups/people and this has been a great resource as well. Their clubhouse/grounds is amazing! Such an awesome space and I feel lucky that our local chapter has this location and building.

If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, this is the place to find support and friendship. I have not been here long, but the outpouring of support has brightened my days! Highly recommend!

I lost my mom to cancer in June 2020. We were extremely close. As a matter of fact, you could say that we were twins. After some time passed where the visitors stopped and the phone calls too, I felt incredibly lonely! I was spiraling out of control. That's when I found my way to a grief support group at Gilda's. I didn't know what to expect and I was unsure if this would help me at all because I was sooo heartbroken. But to my surprise, the people in the group was tremendously kind and supportive. I look forward to our weekly meetings because I always learn something new or get a golden nugget of wisdom. Yes, being involved with Gilda's is bittersweet. I wish there was no need for this group. But I'm very thankful to God that this group exists! So, if you find yourself in the same predicament, I encourage you to try Gilda's!

Gilda's Club @gildasclubgr was founded, in love, by 3 women cancer survivors who personally knew the lack of emotional and social support resources when going through their journeys. Some people have great support systems to get them through life's toughest roads, others do not. They celebrated their 20th anniversary in GR this month! Gilda's Club is open to anyone - adults, children, family and friends that are on any kind of cancer journey or grieving the death of someone in their life. There are so many ways to get involved with this nonprofit by volunteering, supporting, and even hosting events to spread the word and raise funds. The best part? 100% of every dollar raised by Gilda's Club GR stays right here in West Michigan!Gilda's Club has a life changing impact on our community here in GR. If you know someone could use this type of community support, please send them towards this amazing non-profit. Located at 1806 Bridge St.

The website was easy for me to navigate to be able to sign up to volunteer for Gilda's Laugh Fest, to get directions to Gilda's Place for orientation and being able to email Ben a question to which he responded pretty quickly...

This is a beautiful place. We went there for a 50th wedding anniversary party. The atmosphere is so relaxing. We enjoyed dinner music and wonderful staff.
