Today we celebrate the historic liberation of the last enslaved Black Americans, who on June 19, 1865, learned of their freedom — over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. That delay is part of the story. So is the endurance that carried people through it.

At Wildflower, we see that armor every day — in the parents and campers who carry grief and keep going. Today we honor endurance in its most profound form.
From all of us at Wildflower, Happy Juneteenth!

Happy !

The following quote is from a Wildflower parent about their child's perspective shift after summer camp. As we have found thanks to hundreds of successful summers, camp is where healing happens. Wildflower is HOW healing happens.

By awarding scholarships, negotiating tuition reductions, matching kids with a best-fitting camp and more, Wildflower connects bereaved children with healing camp experiences they may not otherwise have.

Thank you to everyone — our donors, volunteers, grantors, sponsors, and staff — who makes these life-changing summers possible!

This week's is dedicated to LGBTQ+ children and families navigating grief and identity at the same time — two of the hardest journeys a person can take, walked at once.

A pearl doesn't form by accident. It begins with something that hurts, and over time, layer by layer, something luminous grows around it. The shell is what holds you while you're still becoming: the bereavement organization, the chosen family, the friend who doesn't need you to explain everything.

The q***r community has always known that survival itself can be luminous — that who you are, forged through pressure, is worth protecting. Grieving children know this too, in their own way: that the self being shaped by loss is not broken, but becoming.

At Wildflower, we are committed to walking alongside all of our families — for as long as they need us. Through summer enrichment experiences where healing happens and belonging is never in question, we create a space where EVERY child and family is seen, celebrated, and unconditionally welcomed.
