Charlie Kiesling spoke to us today about Amanda the Panda Family Grief Center. She told us that 1 in 7 students will have a close relative, class mate or loved one die before they graduate from high school. She told us how Amanda the Panda grief counseling helps the kids, and the grownups handle that difficult time.
We should be proud to know that here in Des Moines Iowa we have one of the best Family Grief Centers in the country. My heart goes out to Charlie and everyone that helps at the Grief Center. I do not know how I would handle that but rest assured that Charlie is handeling it with grace and dignity.
If you would like to learn more about Amanda the Panda, or help volunteer for them you can reach them at 515-223-4847.
Thank you for speaking to us today Charlie.
