A Dream Closer to Reality: Help us Build Saugeen

The dream of a local 6-bed hospice residence where comfort, compassion, and dignity live – is finally within reach. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, 60% of the funds have already been secured. But there is still more needed.

OUR MISSION In partnership with our communities and the Ministry of Health, the Board's Mission is to plan, design, build and operate a 6-bed hospice residence that brings compassionate end of life care CLOSER TO HOME.
