Precious Belonging Bags

SUPPORT THE PALLIATIVE CARE SOCIETY OF THE BOW VALLEY

Thank you to the members of the MCQG Mountain Cabin Quilters Guild who make Precious Belongings Bags for PCSBV. These bags are offered to families who have had a loved- one pass away in hospital so that they may take their possessions home from the hospital in a dignified way. Here we have two sewers Dale Robertson (left) and Albertina Pianarosa displaying the newest batch of bags that will be sent to the local hospitals.

Together with supporters like you we can achieve our goals for better palliative care services and programs to the community in Bow Valley. Please consider making a donation today to support us in raising $20,000 to cover costs such as training and deploying 40-50 volunteers this year!

The Kennedy Administration held a very successful concert on April 30th to raise money for PCSBV! We are so grateful for the support.

General Donations are used for programs currently with the greatest need of your financial support. Tributes honour a family member, friend, or loved one. Building donations support creating a residential hospice home accessible to the Bow Valley community. Monthly donations will ensure constant support throughout the years. All ways to give:
