Mission and Programs

The National Students of AMF Support Network is the only national organization dedicated to supporting college students grieving the illness or death of a loved one.

We accomplish our mission by helping students start chapters of Students of AMF on college campuses nationwide, providing  information and support through www.studentsofamf.org, raising awareness about the needs of grieving college students by annually hosting a National Conference on College Student Grief and National College Student Grief Awareness Week, and holding fundraising events to support these initiatives.

Campus Chapters

National Students of AMF seeks motivated students and faculty members to start Campus Chapters at their college or university. National Students of AMF financially supports the creation and devlopment of Campus Chapters.

Grief Support

National Students of AMF's website provides a place for college students grieving the illness or death of a loved one to receive information and support.

Conferences

The National Conference on College Student Grief is an annual event that brings together students, faculty, and administrative leaders from around the country to engage in a discussion on the issues of grieving college students and what needs to be done to support these students. This conference also brings together leaders from each Campus Chapter of Students of AMF to discuss their experiences and effective ways to sustain the group on their campus.

Fundraisers

The AMF Weekend is held annually in August in Raleigh, NC and includes the Boot Camp 2 Beat Cancer & Family Fun Walk and AMF Banquet. Each Campus Chapter is also encouraged to host its own fundraiser to support chapter activities, make donations to causes deemed important by the chapter membership, or support National Students of AMF Support Network.
