8th Night of Magic

The 8th Night of Magic

Jazz, generosity, friends, and magic filled the room at the 8th Night of Magic last weekend.

A sincere thanks to everyone there – your company and kindness made it the most successful Night of Magic ever!

The money raised will directly support over 800 Feel the Magic Talk Time sessions – that is an outstanding achievement! Talk Time is a psychoeducational session at camp for kids to learn how to face, feel and heal with their grief.

From all of us at Feel the Magic, thank you for your immense generosity!

We look forward to seeing everyone there again in 2023 to help us reach more grieving kids.
