One of the most powerful things you can offer someone who is grieving is your presence. Grieve in Love runs on community — and our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do.
Whether you're helping set up a healing event, welcoming guests at our Ybor City Saturday Market booth, or simply holding space during one of our experiences, your time matters deeply to us and to the people we serve.
🎨 Grieve in Color — Volunteer Opportunity
Grieve in Color is our guided canvas painting experience where participants use art to express and process grief in a safe, supported space. We need warm, caring volunteers to help with setup, hospitality, facilitating the activity, and breakdown.
🌿 Ybor City Saturday Market — Volunteer Opportunity
Every Saturday (July-September) we show up at the Ybor City Saturday Market to share GiL's mission with the Tampa community. Volunteers help set up the booth, welcome visitors, share information about our programs, accept donations, and break down at the end of the shift.
Not sure which fits? We'd love to hear from you.
At Grieve in Love, we believe meaningful support happens in community.
We partner with local creatives, wellness professionals, and organizations to create thoughtful, supportive experiences for those navigating grief. Each partnership brings something unique—allowing us to hold space in a more holistic and intentional way.
What Partnership Looks Like
Our events are built through collaboration.
From guided art experiences to wellness support and storytelling, each partner plays a role in creating a space where individuals feel seen, supported, and safe to express their grief.
We also believe in growing together—referring, supporting, and pouring back into one another’s work beyond the event itself.
