where your money goes
Funds raised for LauraLynn go towards providing our palliative care services to children and our family supports. Direct care for children can include short stay breaks in the hospice, symptom management, step down care between hospital and home, care in the family home, crisis care in the case of a family emergency, and end of life care. Our Family Supports include play and music therapy, family activities, events and camps and counselling and bereavement supports.
