Widows Of Opportunity
About
Kimberly Richardson founded Widows of Opportunity, an organization based in Columbia, SC in 2011 after the loss of her husband. Widows of Opportunity is dedicated to helping widows, widowers and the bereaved achieve self-sufficiency, become the leaders of their homes/families and move forward on a positive path after coping with their loss.
Kimberly host individual Grief Sessions - Via Skype for the bereaved. After the loss of a loved one, one may experience a wide variety of feelings and emotions. The ever-changing emotions one may experience with grief can catch one off guard, causing one to act out of character, or differently than one's typical personality and character.
We all need a support system to help us as we move through our grief journey. While family and friends are vital, unless they have experienced a close personal loss, they most likely don’t fully “get it.” That is where Widows of Opportunity can become a valuable resource.
After hearing your story, we will then determine where to place you in our course. We understand that everyone grieves differently and some are in different stages in their grieving journey. We will cater tur course to your needs and your needs only.
Widows of Opportunity’s Grief Sessions offer emotional support in a safe and open-minded atmosphere, the chance to begin the healing process through sharing your own story, surviving skills to help you through the most challenging days of your grief journey, the opportunity to learn new traditions and ideas to keep loved ones present in your hearts and in your memories, permission to grieve and permission to live a joyful productive life and more.
Invest in yourself and your health today.

Describe a recent event you are fond of.
It's hard to just pick one event that we were fond of. An university booked us to educate their students and staff members on Grief and Loss. After the event was over a counselor was so fond of my skills that she encouraged me to reach out to South Carolina Counseling Association. They were hosting their 57th Annual Conference and the counselor thought that they would benefit from my expertise on Grief and Loss. Long story short, I was invited to the conference to be one of their guest speakers. That weekend I trained and educated counselors and psychiatrists on grief and loss.
