SOLS says thank you to all its volunteers

South Okanagan Loss Society (SOLS) is a safe, accessible, and welcoming space for community members to find support, education and resources in their journey through loss and grief.

For National Volunteer Week, SOLS would like to announce the launch of our new volunteer program. With the philosophy that no one should grieve alone, we have developed a program to connect trained volunteers to provide telephone support to anyone who has suffered a loss.Our carefully selected volunteer, who are supervised by professional staff, have completed a comprehensive training program in order to help those who are experiencing grief due to the loss of a loved one. If you, or someone you know is grieving and in need of support, please call SOLS and leave a message at 250488-1320 or email sols.penticton@gmail.com. This volunteer program is made possible by the support of Aging Well Penticton, #simplegenerosity/Valley First and donations by caring community members.

On behalf of SOLS, I would like to express our sincere thanks to our volunteers and our dedicated staff who make the SOLS loss and grief support groups, grief counselling, and our new volunteer telephone support program possible.
