The holiday season is a time for reflection and gratitude. It's an opportunity to cherish those who make a difference in our lives - whether it's loved ones, friends, or the healthcare workers who go above and beyond during this time of year when most of us are able to take a break.

Through our Lights of Hope campaign, YOU have the chance to honor someone special in your life while making a meaningful impact.

Giving Tuesday 2024

This year on Giving Tuesday we wanted to spotlight one of our donors, Rhonda Fletcher 

Longtime supporters of the CRH Foundation, we spoke to Rhonda about her family's first-hand experience and the importance of giving back.

"We've had family members and many friends who have needed the support of the CRH for physical and mental health and if it wasn't for the foundation and the hospital, they wouldn't be here today."

As an Analyst for AHS, Rhonda has worked in the healthcare world for many years and is an incredible advocate for mental health and patient care which is why each year the A & M Fletcher Family Fund donates to support the in-patient psychiatry unit at Chinook Regional Hospital, including funding renovations, equipment, as well as patient needs.

Mail Service Disruption

Postal Strike | Lights of Hope

As you may know, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers issued a strike notice, which has disrupted mail services locally and nationally.

As many folks generously choose to donate through our Light of Hope mail campaign or in general during this time of the year, we want to ensure your gifts continue to make a difference. To make your donations as seamless as possible, we encourage you to consider our alternative methods above!
