Dear Friends of The Hospice at May Court

With our very successful 9th Annual ‘Homes for the Holidays’ tour now complete, we wish to sincerely thank all who contributed to this sell-out fundraiser in support of The Hospice at May Court! Thank you to our gracious home owners who opened their distinguished doors to the delight of over 2500 happy tour goers. Thank you to the six amazing Ottawa florists who donated their time, talent and materials to showcase their unique seasonal inspirations in each home.

The tour’s success also rests on the 400 plus volunteers who tirelessly worked on the organizing committee, in the homes and in the Hospice boutique and coffee shop…without them this event would not have been possible.  Heartfelt thanks to all the local businesses that provided financial and in-kind support as sponsors, advertisers and contributors of many goods and services. Thank you to our boutique and coffee shop partners whose quality artisanal crafts for sale, tempting treats and refreshments were particularly impressive this year, and greatly appreciated by all who partook.

Again, our deepest thanks to all who supported this year’s event, and, by extension The Hospice of May Court. Your continued commitment and dedication to our Hospice is critical to maintaining the quality end-of-life and palliative care services that we provide to over 600 people every year, at no cost.
