Dear  The Airdrie and District Hospice Society respectfully requests your donation so that we can Ease the Journey through dying to bereavement and grief.  Everyone in our community will be given a chance to provide a financial gift in lieu of the Hike for Hospice this year. And we are asking you to lead the way with your support. And because this may be asking you to consider a larger contribution than you may have given before, I want to make some points with you to demonstrate why.  the impact of your donation will be immediate and enduring.  We will<ol><li>Improve and grow our Compassionate Care Fund to include a wider offering of financial and comfort support.</li><li>Attract, retain and train new volunteers with diverse skills and backgrounds.</li><li>Create new programs as demand increases. There is no age limit on grief.</li><li>Continue to find ways to advocate for physical Hospice spaces and Palliative Care in our region. We are confident this will happen.</li></ol> We are here because <ul><li>of people and families like you who believe in our mission and who might someday need our expertise through the power of professional volunteers.</li><li>we are contacted daily for our expert advice and free programs/services.</li><li>of donors like you.</li></ul> If anybody ‘s been waiting to know more about this, I am sure it is you. The popular Hike for Hospice 2022 event is on hold this year. Our hope is that we will host a 2023 live outdoor event. One that engages the whole region. Until then, we are letting you know we are still active as we recruit new special event volunteers and build our organization over the next few months. We will also recognize National Hospice Palliative Care Week May 1-8th 2022. At the heart of hospice palliative care lies the belief that every person deserves a vibrant and beautiful life, from beginning to end. If you are facing a life-limiting illness, it can feel like your world faded to shades of grey – hospice palliative care brings colour, peace, and joy back to your life in the ways that matter most to you and to your family.  With your donation today in lieu of the Hike for Hospice event, you will be a part of an organization whose long-term focus is to provide peace to Ease the Journey. We know we can and with donor support we will.  And if you have participated in the Hike for Hospice or have donated before we would benefit so much with an increase in your gift to reach our goal of this campaign of $4500.00. You may also want to consider signing up for monthly giving as an option to increase your annual gift. <ul><li>Finally, please share our story with those you know.</li><li>Refer someone who needs our help, grief has no time limit.</li><li> Join our organization as a volunteer, we would love to meet you.
