Lifelong Woonsocket residents Melissa Nespolo and her father, Michael Nespolo, joined the staff at Camp BraveHeart as a way to give back to Hope Hospice of Rhode Island, the organization that provided end-of-life care through the loss of their mother and wife.
“I was hesitant to volunteer the first time,” said Melissa of her decision to work with the North Scituate-based camp that helps children cope with grief.
