No one should face the end of life alone.

Join The Embrace Circle, a community of compassionate people helping ensure every resident and family is surrounded by comfort, dignity, and care.

Just $35 a month helps provide the comforts that make Hospice feel like home.

Every day, local families walk through our doors facing one of life's most difficult journeys.

At St. Joseph's Hospice, they find more than expert end-of-life care.

They find a place where families can gather, favourite meals are prepared with love, grandchildren can visit, pets are welcomed, and every moment is centred on comfort, dignity, and compassion.

Because only half of our funding comes from the government, it's our community that makes these moments possible.

That's what The Embrace Circle is all about.

Together, we make sure every family feels embraced.

When you become a monthly donor, you're helping provide the comforts that matter most when time matters most.

You're helping ensure no one faces this journey alone.

More than care. An Embrace.

Create moments that matter

Support compassionate care and meaningful moments between residents and the people they love.

Every month, your generosity helps us:

Provide the comforts of home
From favourite meals and warm blankets to peaceful spaces where families can simply be together.

Walk beside families
Support grief counselling, bereavement programs, and community services that continue long after a loved one has died.

Why "The Embrace Circle"?

Because hospice care is one great big embrace.

An embrace from nurses, physicians, personal support workers, volunteers, counsellors, donors, and neighbours.

When you join The Embrace Circle, you become part of that embrace.

Your monthly gift wraps around local families during one of the hardest moments of their lives, reminding them they are cared for, supported, and never alone.

A Community Built on Compassion.

As a member of The Embrace Circle, you'll receive:

  • Stories showing the impact of your generosity.

  • Updates from Hospice throughout the year.

  • Invitations to special Hospice events.

  • The knowledge that every month, you're helping another family find comfort when they need it most.

Monthly giving provides reliable support that allows Hospice to be there whenever families need us.

Together, we can ensure every resident experiences dignity, every family finds support, and every goodbye is met with compassion.
