The HBF Foundation is proud to announce Comfort Zone Camp as the recipient of our 2025 grant.
Comfort Zone Camp is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping grieving children heal, grow, and live fuller lives. Now celebrating its 25th anniversary, Comfort Zone Camp offers free programs in 13 states, including locally here in Massachusetts. Through trust-building activities and age-based support groups—both in-person and virtual—these programs help break the emotional isolation that grief can create.
This May, Comfort Zone Camp will host a weekend program at Camp Burgess in Bourne, MA, serving children ages 7–18 who have experienced the loss of a parent, guardian, sibling, or friend. Several members and supporters of the HBF Foundation will be volunteering at the camp, helping create a space where children can process their grief and connect with others who truly understand.
We are honored to support Comfort Zone Camp in their mission to bring comfort, healing, and hope to children—both across the country and right here in our own community.
