TREES OF HOPE DONATION FORMS WILL BE AT THE BROOKS BULLETIN OFFICE, SHOPPERS DRUG MART AND THE BROOKS HOMECARE OFFICE. YOUR COMPLETED FORMS MAY BE MAILED OR DROPPED OFF AT THE BULLETIN AND BROOKS HOMECARE OFFICE.
The lights of the New Metal Trees in front of the hospital will be lit up every November to acknowledge a donation made by area residents on behalf of loved ones.
Amber lights represent an ‘In Memory Of’ and the coloured ones represent ‘Merry Christmas’ wishes. Please Join us at the TREES OF HOPE metal trees in front of the Brooks Health Centre for the kick off!
Each memorial bulb purchased for $15.00 represents one individual ‘In Memory Of’ or group ‘Christmas Wishes’ from you. A tax-deductible receipt will be issued and recognition of your donation will be printed in the Brooks Bulletin the week of Christmas. All funds raised remain in our area to enhance hospice palliative care services for our citizens.
