"From the moment she entered the world, Francie Nolan needed to be made of stern stuff, for growing up in the Williamsburg slums of Brooklyn, New York demanded fortitude, precocity, and strength of spirit. . . By turns overwhelming, heartbreaking, and uplifting, the Nolans’ daily experiences are raw with honestly and tenderly threaded with family connectedness."

Attention, gardeners! 🧑‍🌾🌱

We’re looking for individuals, friends and families, and local businesses who would like to give back by helping us care for the beautiful grounds at Hope Floats.

The grounds are one of the first things people often comment on when they visit Hope Floats for the first time. Community members have even described the property as feeling like “a big hug.” The gardens play an important role in creating the peaceful, welcoming warmth of our center, and we’d love your help in keeping them that way!

We’re looking for volunteers to help with planting, weeding, and tidying our garden beds and mindful Labyrinth path. Whether you’d like to volunteer on your own, bring a friend, or gather a team from your business, we’d love to have you join us.

Interested in getting your hands dirty for a good cause? 🌿
Reach out to [email protected] or 781-585-4221 x106 to learn more!

Your support will help us continue to offer free support groups, Mike's Club programming, and various events and workshops throughout the year.

Tell your friends, family, and neighbors about the fundraiser and come hungry! 🍝

🫱🏼‍🫲🏾 How Can I Help?: Becoming a Compassionate Grief Companion Workshop

Hosted by Hope Floats’ Heather Gray, LCSW

Wednesday, July 22, 2026 from 6 - 8 PM

Mark your calendars! We are excited to be offering our 'How Can I Help?: Becoming a Compassionate Grief Companion' Workshop again this summer.

Often when someone we know and care about experiences a loss it can be challenging to know how to offer support. This workshop will focus on providing helpful tools, strategies, and information to anyone looking to learn how to better support those navigating grief due to the death of a loved one. Drawing from evidence-based practices as well as personal testimonies, participants will gain valuable insight into the unique challenges and needs accompanying the death of a loved one and how best to provide help in a way that transcends the isolation often felt by those managing grief and loss.

Pre-registration is required.
