The Lending Cupboard Supporting and Impacting Families Lives

We had a special little visitor today at the Cupboard. Ethan – our poster child has grown a bit and we are thrilled to be able to continue to support him and his family on his journey while he waits for his own new chair! Just another good day at the Cupboard where our hearts are touched and we are reminded of the tremendous impact we have on families lives?

Red Deer Hospice Seeking Holiday Support

From the Red Deer Hospice
Hospice is home for the holidays
Red Deer Hospice, a residential home for the terminally ill, is seeking donations this holiday season.
Hospice staff are making every effort to give their residents and families one last memorable
Christmas together. The home is decorated, cheerful music plays in the common area and the aroma
of holiday baking fills the halls. On Christmas morning, each resident receives a special gift and enjoys
a delicious turkey dinner, cooked in-house by Hospice’s talented chefs.
“Our mission is to support a peaceful and compassionate end-of-life journey,” said Jerri Taylor,
Hospice’s Executive Director. “Not only during the holidays, but throughout the entire year.” Because
residents are never charged a fee, Hospice relies on donations to make them as comfortable as
possible in their last stage of life.
Year-round, donor funds are used to provide home-cooked meals for residents and their families,
specialty beds and mattress, medical equipment, furnishings, therapeutic bathing systems, personal
care items and much more.
“We hope the community considers our residents who are spending their final days here,” stated
Taylor. “Especially during this special time of year.”
To make a donation to Red Deer Hospice, please visit www.reddeerhospice.com/donate.
At Red Deer Hospice, we are committed to providing compassionate end-of-life care. Located in South Red Deer, with the beautiful Memorial Gardens across the street, Hospice offers 16 private rooms that ensure peace, intimacy and dignity for residents and their loved ones. Professional nursing care is provided 24 hours a day, as well as companionship and bereavement support.
