What a magical night! 🌟

Our first-ever Cirquetacular gala, proudly partnered with R Baby Foundation, brought our community together for a night we will never forget.

From cirque performers and remarks from our Clinical Executive Director, MaryT Denning, to celebrating our extraordinary honorees — Libby & Scooter Weintraub (Courage Award) and Chinh Chu (Visionary Award) — every moment was dedicated to children’s lives and supporting grieving families. We were also thrilled to capture wonderful moments with our founder, Lilly Julien, COPE board members, and our gala co-chair, Doug Newton, who serves proudly on our board!

Because of you, we raised nearly $2 million! Swipe to take a look inside the evening, and join us in celebrating our generous sponsors. THANK YOU for coming together for such an impactful event!!! ❤️🎪

Having navigated her own profound losses before returning to COPE to lead bereavement support groups, Wendy brings deep compassion and lived understanding to her practice. She shares her perspective on grief, healing, and what it truly means to hold space for others.

Swipe through to read her wisdom on giving ourselves permission to grieve without judgment, carrying loved ones forward, and finding grounding in everyday moments.

Mary’s clinical leadership, dedication, and heart ensure that COPE remains a sanctuary of support and hope for grieving parents, siblings, and families across Long Island. Her work strengthens our community daily and guarantees that no family has to grieve alone.
