Donations to Hospice Quinte
Our mandate is to provide care and support
to the terminally ill and their families, at no cost to them.
Although we do not charge for our services, we do incur operating
cost, and must rely heavily upon the generosity of our donors
and the energy and expertise of our volunteer fundraisers,
who support our cause. We receive and depend on donations
from families who have used our services, donations in memoriam,
foundations, corporations and small business, and individuals
in the community.
We receive 38% of our operating budget from the Ministry of Health, to help cover the costs of our programs, but the remainder must be covered by donations and our fundraising. We must continually be involved in public awareness to make the community aware of the need for our programs and the need to support it.
We
provide a charitable receipt for all donations of $5.00 and
over. Tax-deductible donations can be made to Hospice Quinte
in memoriam or as a general donation. If you are interested
in making a donation, please contact
us or please print
this page (pdf) and fill out the form and mail it to
us at the address given. We accept VISA, Mastercard, American
Express,
Cash, or Cheques.
Please
support our Nevada Ticket program. Our Nevada
outlets are Mac's
on Trent Street in Frankford, and SK Convenience
at Sidney St. and Bell Blvd. in Belleville.
The need for palliative and hospice care will
only grow in the future. We hope that we can continue to
provide some of the very special care that people need in
their final journey in this life. With the understanding
and support from our communities, we will.
