Purpose
The death of a spouse causes stress unlike any other. The psychological effects can bring on sadness, anxiety, and loneliness. Most widows lose 75% of their support base when their spouse dies.
Approximately 700,000 women are widowed each year. Two thirds of all widows are over the age of 65.
If you face any of these challenges, Widow’s Might can be your vanguard.
Widow’s Might has provided me with the tools and the environment to expand into a more productive person and enlarged my circle of caring friends. I look forward to each month’s programs that are so enriching and varied.

I love Widow’s Might. The women who lead this program are awesome. They empower, support and engage all widows because we all grieve differently. They walk alongside us because they cannot do it for us. The other widows who attend are awesome too because they have so much to offer through sharing their journey with others.

Widow’s Might gives us practical ways to navigate our new reality. I have personally taken advantage of the awesome handymen who came to my home to take care of a “honey-do” list. They were so kind and prayed for me before they left.

The loss of my husband was taking away my strength and ability to think clearly. Fortunately, my first visit came through Widows Might with women who have also lost husbands. Their knowledge and guidance was vital for direction in organizing my essential documents along with their many comforting hugs. I could talk to them about my loved one and felt very safe. This loss diminished such a part of me however, I need to continue to go through to celebrate my gift of life. The Widow Might’s calls and reassurance gives me strength. Knowing that their meetings, lectures, social activities, phone calls and financial support will be ongoing through this grief process is essential and of tremendous comfort.
