What Makes the Modern Widows Club Membership Unique?

When grief support no longer fits your needs, our organization focuses on your health and wellbeing, using mentor-focused support programs following our Seven Pillars of Healthy Widowhood curriculum.

This life support assists widows with rebuilding their lives with an ecosystem of comprehensive care, not just processing their grief.

Voices of Our Wisters® (Widow + Sisters)

“[MWC] has helped me feel less alone in my widowhood journey. It has given me ‘wisters’ who understand what I am going through. They never make me feel like, I’m too much.”

- Abby Z. | Member of Widow Survivors of Suicide Virtual Community

“MWC has given me the ability to connect with ladies who get it. As fellow widows, they understand the immense pain of my loss. We laugh together, cry together and encourage each other to be the best version of ourselves while honoring the memory of the person we lost."

- Debbie M. | MWC Member

“It was what got me through the scary part of being alone in my widowhood and feeling no one could understand.
Everyone understands.
It is like old friends who you see once a year and it’s an instant connection. The love, acceptance, hugs, laughs, trips, and just fun makes you realize you are never alone.
Love this group and all the beautiful strong caring women in it.”

- Kelly S. | Member of Travel Club

“This organization means the world to me.”

“I was married to my high school sweetheart for 60 years. I lost him after a five-year battle with blood cancer. I spent practically my whole life with this person; I was 79 when he died.
This organization has answered so many questions for me. It has helped me to know all my feelings in this journey are normal.
For example, I thought one ‘gets over’ the pain in a year or two. I'm almost seven years in, and I still experience that unbearable empty feeling with pain and tears. However, being with other widows who ‘get it’ is so comforting and validating.”

- Freddie S. | MWC Member, Local Community

“[MWC] has helped me to know all my feelings in this journey are normal.”

“They reminded me that healing was possible.”

I found Modern Widows Club in late 2019, shortly after the loss of my significant other. At the time, I was completely lost — unsure of which direction to take or how to begin healing. In a quiet moment of searching, I came across MWC.
Even without fully stepping in, I felt connected. The stories I read, the photos I saw — they gave me hope. They reminded me that healing was possible.
- Kelly M.

It was restorative to talk with other widows and be seen. Feeling the togetherness was amazing.

"MWC has provided me with very beneficial tools and support"

MWC has provided me with very beneficial tools and support to help me through the early stages of my grief with my husband’s passing.
Not only has MWC been a great support for me as a widow, but also as a grief support for all of the loss I have experienced. I am thankful that I found MWC online when I was undergoing significant struggles in my life.
- Julie M.
