is a non-profit, charitable organization committed to providing compassionate care to individuals living with a life-threatening or terminal illness, when hope of a cure is no longer medically possible. The goal of care is to provide support and comfort to the patient and their family, whether in hospital, personal care home, or at home. At some time, in some way, we must all face the end of life. And most of us share in a common hope: that when death comes to us or to a loved one, it will be peaceful and free of pain. We hope to be surrounded by those we love, feeling safe, comfortable and cared for. The palliative care program has been designed to help make these hopes a reality. Memory Garden in the Park
The Memory Garden in the Park was established for two reasons:
1. Provide community awareness of palliative care and information about the services the organization offers.
2. Provide a peaceful place for quiet reflection, and to honor the memory of a loved one. A Memory Wall was erected in the Memory Garden, in November 2011. To have a name added please contact infor@sunsetpalliativecare.org
We are fundraising to redesign the Memory Garden in order to include Celebration of Life ceremonies. Donations can be mailed to Box 92, Portage la Prairie, MB R1N 3B2. The donations received through memorial donations are intended for patient services, so funds must be raised specifically for this "Memory Garden" project. If interested, you can donate quickly and safely by contacting us at info@sunsetpalliativecare.org
We hope that you will consider supporting the Sunset Memory Garden in the Park with a donation to help us build it in a comfortable, attractive, and appealing manner. Aldene Moroz, Volunteer Coordinator
