Matthews House is grateful for the support of the Royal Canadian Legion’s Charitable Foundation and Branch 171 in Alliston. Last night Matthews House Foundation Executive Director, Mandy McCurdy, received $4, 477.00 on behalf of Matthews House for the purchase of new equipment for the residential wing of Hospice.

The outstanding care and support at Matthews House couldn’t be possible without the generosity of community partners like the Royal Canadian Legion. Thank you for your commitment to our clients and their families!

Did you know? 💛

When a resident passes at Matthews House Hospice, they and their family are honoured with a Butterfly Walk 🦋

Staff, volunteers, and fellow guests gather in the hallway and walk behind the resident and their loved ones as they are carried out the front door. A song chosen by the family is often played, whether its instrumental, rock, country, pop, or gospel, creating a personal and meaningful moment of honour.

We deeply value the relationships formed with residents and their families during their stay. It is a privilege to be a part of their care journey 💛

Join us for our Death Café ☕

At a Death Café, people drink tea & coffee, eat cake, and discuss death. The goal is to increase awareness of death and to help people make the most of their (finite) lives. There will be lively conversation that is insightful and far from morbid! ✨

📅 Wednesday, March 25th from 1pm - 3pm

Everyone is welcome! Register with Eryn by March 18th at emanchanda@matthews.house
