About this Death Cafe
Death Cafe of St. Petersburg, Russia, has been an exsample to us. We run a Death Cafe, because we can. We think that death deserves to be discussed and accepted as a part of life. We want to lessen fear of death and normalize it - to bring death closer to life by calling it "hän" (he/she in Finnish) and this way improve the quality of life and meaning of every lived moment.
Lappeenrannan Palvelukeskussäätiö provides us the space and Lappeenrannan Mielenterveysseura is Matti's support organisation, Kirsti gets sponsoring from Kaakkois-Suomen Saattohoitoyhdistys, Muuttolintu ry.
