The 6th Annual Handbags for Hospice fundraiser in support of Ed’s House Northumberland Hospice Care Centre Foundation has officially sold out, but you can still get on the waitlist for tickets.
The highly anticipated event takes place on April 10 at the Best Western Plus Cobourg Inn & Convention Centre, where over 275 guests are expected to gather for a night of fashion, fundraising and fun. Tickets are $100 each, with waitlist spots now available at handbagsforhospice.ca.
Ed’s House Northumberland Hospice Care Centre provides compassionate, end-of-life care in a comfortable, home-like setting for individuals with life-limiting illnesses.
Ed’s House Joel Scott tells us about Kim Barnes, a client who recently experienced the Hospice first hand.
The hospice offers 24/7 palliative care, ensuring patients and their families receive emotional, spiritual, and medical support during their final journey.
Scott tells more about how the hospice supports families.
In addition to on-site care, Ed’s House also provides community-based services such as the Palliative Care Community Team, Volunteer Hospice Visiting, and Grief and Bereavement Support.
According to Scott, the hospice’s grief and bereavement services are just one of the many supports offered at Ed’s House.
Funds raised by Handbags for Hospice will support these exceptional programs and services that are offered at Ed’s House – all offered at no cost to clients and their families.
“As we prepare for this year’s Handbags for Hospice, I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has helped make this event possible,” said Trish Baird, CEO of Community Care Northumberland.
Guests will be welcomed with a complimentary drink and can enjoy auctions, photo booths, and the new Tote Treasure Wall. The evening also features the popular Golden Ticket Draw, Mystery Bags, and delicious hors d’oeuvres and desserts.
