Due to the ongoing Canada Postal strike, please consider giving online, over the phone, or dropping off your donation at our hospice or counselling centre.

GivingTuesday 2023

GivingTuesday is November 29, 2023

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day encouraging people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires millions to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

Join the movement and give – each Tuesday and every day – whether it’s some of your time, a donation, or the power of your voice in your local community. Giving a little means a lot!

More information is coming soon!
