Supporting widowed people, their families, and their communities,
meeting evolving needs across the widowed experience

Jeanine O’Donnell
Volunteer Regional Group Leader
Sussex County

After Jeanine’s husband died in 2023, she brought a Regional Social Group of
Soaring Spirits International here to Sussex County.   The goal is to
build hope and community for those struggling after the death of their person. 
Please visit the website at www.soaringspirits.org to learn all about this
international non-profit, and discover all the resources they have for
ALL widowed people regardless of age, sex, or relationship
(engaged, partnered or married) or the length of time that
their person may have passed away.  Jeanine is available to
speak to any organization wishing to learn about the resources
and what they can do to help serve this population which
grows by 1 million people each year.  She is especially focused on
businesses/organizations who deal with people within the first 6 months to
insure they are being treated with compassion, and retained as clients by
who understand the journey of widowhood they are walking.
