About Hospice - Leadership & Innovation in Compassionate Care
We are pleased to be teaming up with Fitness for Hospice as the official Charity Sponsor of the Spring Thaw 5km .The Hospice of Windsor and Essex County Inc. is Canada's first community-based village concept which has a team of dedicated professional staff and volunteers that provide the very best patient care programs and services to patients and their families both on-site and throughout Windsor and Essex County.
The Hospice stands as a symbol of hope as it delivers compassion through support, education and empowerment while providing quality of life.
These programs and services are offered at no cost... which is where you come in.
It is through fundraising events such as this and the generosity of our community through donations, pledges and participation which allows The Hospice to continue to offer all that they do - FREE OF CHARGE.
