Join us for our new series: Let’s Talk About Death, where we explore new thinking around death and end-of-life care.
We start our series by covering the often-misunderstood topic of hospice. Our panelists from the hospice care community will discuss the basics and misconceptions around hospice and how families can benefit from this comfort care. We’ll share experiences from people who have been affected by hospice care, and we’ll have plenty of time for questions and answers.
Presented in partnership with Ramsey County Library – Roseville

We had such a great time at Bundles of Love New Brighton last February, that we are going to their Maplewood location on Saturday, Sept 21, from 9-12.
There are lots of different tasks like putting the bundles together, cutting fabric, pinning and on and on, so there is sure to be something for everyone. If you like to sew you can even bring your own sewing machine and help sew items. This event is open to kids 12 and older.
Bundles of Love is an all-volunteer non-profit that partners with community organizations to assist Minnesota families in need by providing handmade items for newborns. Their vision is a world where every newborn has access to the basics. They have work groups across the Twin Cities that sew, knit and crochet newborn baby clothes and put together bundles. A bundle is a bag of about 30 items that a mother in need would need to take her baby home from the hospital. Most of the items are handmade but we also include diapers, baby wash and baby wipes.
