🦋A heartfelt thank you to Tammy Mathieson-Harbaugh, for donating a day of compassionate care at St. Joseph’s Hospice. In memory of George Mathieson 🦋

Funding a Day of Compassionate Care is more than just a donation, it is a heartfelt contribution that ensures we can continue to offer our community comfort, peace, and exceptional care when they need it the most. Your support enriches our residents and families’ time spent at Hospice during their end-of-life journey, giving them a space to focus on what truly matters.

Daily ‘Care for a Day’ at St. Joseph’s Hospice exceeds $785. With Government funding only covering 56% of the cost per bed per day, we experience a funding shortfall of $345 per bed.

Our $200 Care for a Day Donation helps fund a day of care and bridges the gap to ensure our care continues in the Sarnia Lambton Community.

You can choose to have your donation recognized on our Social Media or remain anonymous. In addition, we will add a butterfly to our Care for a Day board in the Hospice Residence, in recognition of your gift. All donations are eligible for a full tax receipt. You can choose to dedicate a day in memory of a loved one, in honour of someone special, or support a future resident who will need our care.

💙 Thanks to you, we can provide care that truly matters—your support creates a lasting impact.

HONOUR YOUR TEACHER THIS HOLIDAY SEASON!🎄💌✨

Teachers receive plenty of mugs, candles, and treats—but finding a meaningful gift that doesn’t add to the clutter can make your appreciation feel even more special.

This year, consider making a donation to the St. Joseph’s Hospice Education Fund in honour of your teacher. Your generosity supports ongoing learning for St. Joseph’s Hospice staff, ensuring we can deliver the highest standard of care to our community.

When you donate, you’ll receive a card to present to your teacher, letting them know that a heartfelt gift was made in their honour.

Donations can be made in person at the St. Joseph’s Hospice Resource Centre, 475 Christina St. N., Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Thank you for choosing to give in a meaningful way this holiday season!💙

The holiday season can be both beautiful and overwhelming for those caring for a loved one. Finding ways to lighten the load, like leaning on others for support, focusing on meaningful traditions, and letting go of the idea that everything must be perfect, can make a big difference. Taking moments for yourself, even just a few minutes of quiet or a small break, can help you recharge and be fully present with those you care for.

For more support, please reach out to supportiveservices@sjhospice.ca or 519-337-0537.
