Thank you to everyone who generously donated winter coats for our staff.

Your kindness has made a real difference—especially for our newcomer team members who arrived in Canada with very little.

Because of your support, they now have warm coats for the winter, all their household items and truly feel welcomed into our community. 🫶🏼

We are deeply grateful for your compassion and generosity, and we’re happy to share that we now have all the items they need. 💙💚

Thank you!! 💙💚

We've shared past donations from our wonderful local Lions Clubs to help build the new Dundas Manor - and now, their hard work has doubled! Thanks to their teamwork, the Lions Clubs International Fund has matched their donations - bringing the Lions contribution to a whopping $260,000!

On Wednesday, reps from some of the clubs joined Dundas Manor Leadership on the busy construction site to present this amazing donation and see the progress of the construction. The funds from the Lions will be used to furnish the four lounge and dining areas (one in each neighbourhood) as well as the main entry of the new home., helping to create welcoming and comfortable spaces for residents and their families.

Many thanks to the members of the Iroquois-Matilda, Mountain, Wi******er, Chesterville, Metcalfe, Morrisburg and Russell Lions Clubs for their leadership in pledging to raise funds towards our $18 million community goal!

Pictured below, from left to right in the back are: Phil Marleau, Redevelopment Project Manager; Mark McMillan (Chesterville & District Lions Club); Glen Briggs (Wi******er Lions Club A-4); Barry Fawcett (Iroquois Matilda Lions); Cholly Boland (CEO - WDMH & Dundas Manor); Jim Devenny (Lions Clubs International Fund Rep). Front row: Helen Porteous (Metcalfe & District Lions Club); Cindy Ault Peters (WDMH Foundation Executive Director); Renee Devenny (Lions Clubs International Fund Area Leader); Susan Poirier (Administrator - Dundas Manor) and Bill Vermilyea (Mountain Township Lions Club).

This generous matching gift puts us closer to having raised almost $15 million! We are so grateful to the Lions Club members - and to the community who supports their efforts!🩷💜

A special and yummy Harvest Supper was served last evening with all the trimmings.

Kudos to the dietary team who prepared it, to the activity team who decorated the dining rooms into a beautiful space, and to the whole team who served the meal, including our very own Cholly playing dinner music on the piano.

for all who make a special evening come together so nicely 💙💚
