We wish to acknowledge the donations made to Prairie Rose Hospice Palliative Care Society by the following individuals in support of palliative care activities. Community donations make up the foundation of our budget and help us provide palliative care resources such as in-home hospital beds, printed resources for palliative care clients, education workshops, and a biannual memorial service for the community. All funds raised stay in the community to enhance local palliative care services.
The supporters and volunteers of Prairie Rose Hospice Palliative Care Society would love to one day see fully funded hospice care in partnership with community resources for Brooks and area. “Hope for Hospice Care” aims to make that dream realized.
Donate to the Hope for Hospice Care Fund
Whether in memory of a loved one or so that compassionate end-of-life care can be accessible to all. Tax-deductible receipts are available.
Find the current Hope for Hospice Care donation form under “Resources” and “Forms”. Visit our “How to Donate” page for more information on donation options.
