Most people know the MSJ foundation provides money to acquire furnishings and equipment. Did you also know it funds many other projects around the Home like the Spiritual Care program that residents and their families’ value so much, opportunities for staff education and for transportation of residents for functions organized by the Home.
One of these very important ‘others’ is our Home’s green spaces and garden areas!! Each year, the MSJ Foundation kicks off our Annual Fundraising with the “Garden of Life” Campaign. This campaign has become our main support for the Home’s many amazing outdoor spaces that contribute to the emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing of our Residents.
By supporting our green spaces and providing the opportunity for our residents to join in on planting and nurturing our garden areas, you are helping us care for more than just their physical and medical needs; you are helping us care for their emotional and spiritual needs as well.
Donations for this program can be made anytime during the year, but the biggest impact comes in the spring when our teams are getting ready to dig into the dirt and put some colour around the yards after the winter.

Our Mission is to give and receive care and compassion for mind, body and spirit based on Catholic ethics and Christian values.
