We must raise $1.9 million every year to continue providing compassionate care for our community.
100% of the care and support we provide is at no cost to patients, clients and their families.
Receiving only 60 percent of our operating funds from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, we rely on donations from our community to fund the remaining 40 percent.
