Death Cafe Santa Barbara Cake
Death Cafes are Popping up all Over the World!
Death Cafes are organized by members of the community in an effort to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives. At Death Cafes, people come together in a relaxed and safe setting to discuss death, drink tea and eat delicious cake.
Death Cafes originated in Switzerland and are spreading rapidly as people are eager to discuss this somewhat taboo subject with like-minded members of their community. The Deathcafe.com website lists the following Death Cafe principles:
- On a not for profit basis (though to be sustainable we try to cover expenses through donations and fundraising)
- With no intention of leading participants towards any particular conclusion, product or course of action
- In an accessible, respectful and confidential space, free of discrimination
- Alongside refreshing drinks and nourishing food – and cake!
