Are you ready to help?
To build a 6 bed residential hospice - we are approved for 7 partially government funded beds but we are, depending on donations, hoping to build 6 beds to allow for 1 turnaround or transition bed for better efficiency.
Over $1,000,000.00 has been raised so far - total received from fundraisers and donations over the years plus pledges so far total almost $4M and the Build Campaign is now just starting.
