The Vince Munafo Memorial Golf Outing is a day to honor and remember the lives and legacies of loved ones who left us too soon. All proceeds from the event directly benefit COJ’s mission and the friends, neighbors, and often strangers, who find their way to COJ for grief support.

Celebrate the Hope, Strength, & Healing that bind us together. Although grief is hard, the Vince Munafo Memorial golf outing is a wonderful day filled with friends, laughter, and celebration. It’s also our largest fundraising event of the year and why we are counting on you! You can give your support as a player, sponsor, donor, or volunteer. Each matters and makes a difference. Unfortunately, in Ohio, 1 in 10 students will suffer the death of a parent or sibling the time they reach 18*. So what do you say? Are you the ONE who will support the 1 in 10?

HISTORY OF COJ

Out of tragic loss, the seeds of Companions on a Journey were planted more than 25 years ago as a way of providing HOPE, STRENGTH, and HEALING to the bereaved children and families of our community.

With much compassion and care, these seeds have grown and flourished over the years into a beautiful, vibrant tree of love, providing shade, comfort and shelter to many.

When we experience the death of a loved one, our lives often feel as if they’re unraveling. It can be a confusing time, a time filled with a mixture of conflicting and changing emotions.

Each person’s grief experience is unique and quite often it can be difficult for friends and family members to fully understand what we’re going through. It’s a tough reality that at the exact time when we need to connect with others the most, connection can often be so very hard.

This is where Companions on a Journey comes in. Like a sturdy tree, COJ provides us with roots to stay grounded during the storm and supports the growth of new buds of healing with love as we prepare to emerge from winter, working always, within our own personal timelines.

The journey of grief is not an easy one.

It takes us deep inside the depths of ourselves – to our beliefs, our assumptions, our identity, our relationships, and more. Just as storms make trees stronger, you, too, will discover newfound strength as you bravely move forward in your grief — one day, one hour, and sometimes even just one moment at a time.
