Susan Genest Fund for End of Life Care

Most of us have sat, or will sit, at the bedside of someone dear to us who is dying. All of us, no matter who we are, will one day come to the end of this life's journey.

I established this fund to support hospice and palliative care facilities in the London community. Generally, hospices receive very little government funding. Most hospice funding is received through donations and fundraising initiatives.

The compassionate support hospice and palliative care facilities offer the dying and their loved ones is invaluable. To offer each of us a dignified death in a caring environment is both life-giving and life-affirming.
