Through generous donations by area residents, the trees in front of the Brooks Health Centre are illuminated during the holiday season representing a Memorial and/or Merry Christmas wish. All funds remain in our community to enhance palliative care services. Tax-deductible receipts are available. This year’s donations will close December 12, 2018.
PRHPCS’s 2018 The Trees of Hope will be lit at the Brooks Health Centre on Nov 12th. Please join us for cookies and hot chocolate at 6:30 pm.
Our PRHPCS volunteers will be at the following places:
The Well – Nov 9th & 10th
The Brooks Legion & Brooks High School on Nov 17th
Shopper’s Drug Mart Nov 15th, 20th, 29th & Dec 4th from 2 to 5
Duchess Rec Centre and Brooks United Church on Nov 24th

Or, you may go to Brooks Home Care Office (located south of the Hospital Emergency) Nov 12th thru Dec 7th anytime between 8 to 12 am and 12:30 to 4 pm to drop off your forms or to purchase your bulbs.
