We are deeply grateful to the Waterloo Knights of Columbus, Waterloo County Quilters Guild, and the Kitchener Rangers’ Teddy Bear Toss for filling our hearts—and our Legacy Program—with love.

Thanks to your generosity, over 100 cuddly stuffed animals and beautifully handcrafted quilts will become treasured memory bears. Each bear carries a hand-stitched recorded message, creating a lasting legacy of comfort and connection for families across our community.

Your kindness helps turn memories into something you can hold close forever. 💙

Hospice Waterloo Region is introducing a new bereavement group for men (cisgender and transgender) and folks who feel most comfortable in a space for men, providing time to navigate the complexities of grief in community.

These monthly gatherings offer a relaxed, informal environment where participants can share experiences, emotions, and challenges related to loss. This group aims to foster a sense of support, and strength, offering the opportunity to build connection with others who understand.

This is a monthly, peer-facilitated group and registration is required.

Please reach out to intake@hospicewaterloo.ca or call 519-743-4114 for more information.
