The Still Place supports families with serious and terminally ill children through a no cost week long single family retreat. Retreats are designed to enhance resiliency, empowerment, self-determination and hope for the entire family. For many families this is the first time they have experienced a family vacation in many years and many times for the first time since their child was diagnosed. The weekly schedule may include any of the following: The Still Place Day which involves staying at the house with a hike, art and play in the creek;Excursion Day at a local park; Family Day which often includes gem mining; Iron Chef Day in which the children visit a local farm, work in our garden and then prepare a meal for their family, Fridays include an Adventure and then in the evening the No Parent Party and Parents Night Out; Saturdays are a Wild Card Day in which the family decides what they would like to do on their last day. Families enjoy activities such as hiking, gem mining, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, kayaking and many more adventures which are abundant in the mountains and valleys of Western North Carolina.

As Childhood Cancer Awareness Month comes to an end, our commitment to these children and their families does not. 💛

For families facing childhood cancer, the journey doesn’t end when September does. The appointments continue. The treatments continue. The uncertainty continues. And so must our support.

At The Still Place, we believe awareness is more than a month on the calendar. It’s choosing, every day, to listen to these families, share their stories, support them through the hard days, and remind them that they are not alone.

September may be ending, but we will keep raising awareness, offering hope, and standing beside families impacted by childhood cancer all year long. 💛

What an amazing Still Your Mom retreat we had this past weekend. It was our last one of the year and we could not be more pleased. While we wish there was not a need for these retreats, how we wish a parent never lost a child, that is not the reality in which we live. We are so grateful to the supporters in our community, to Charlie’s Heart Foundation and Ansley’s Rainbows of Hope for making this all possible.
We will be announcing our 2027 dates soon, so if you know a mom who could use a retreat like this, please pass on our information. You can learn more and apply at www.thestillplace.org
If you would like to make a donation to help us continue offering these retreats you can do so at www.thestillplace.org/support

Go Gold the rest of September!!

September is childhood cancer awareness month, and one way to show your support is to "go gold". Spread the word, raise awareness, and let's do everything we can to beat this!

At The Still Place, one way we care for childhood cancer patients is offering retreats for these children and their families with all expenses paid. This is a time for them to escape the stresses of day-to-day life, experience nature, spend quality time together, and have the time to rest.

Go Gold this September!!

As children, despite inspiring us, their voices are small, and they need us to speak up for them. They need our gold, real gold, through improved funding, awareness and support from government, research, insurance and pharmaceutical companies.

TSP offers families with seriously ill children, free retreats so they can escape the hospital stays and doctor appointments and all the things that are involved with raising a seriously ill child, for just a little while to enjoy time and create memories with their family. We also offer retreats for Moms and Dads who have lost a child and for Moms who are long term caregivers for their seriously ill child.
