Bruce Power and its supplier partners have donated $100,000 to support the Huron Shores Hospice fundraising campaign. Bruce Power has donated $25,000, while its supplier partners have made a substantial donation of $75,000.
“We are truly grateful for Bruce Power’s generous donation and continued support,” said Cathy Herbert, Executive Director of Huron Shores Hospice. “Thanks to this contribution, we can continue to provide this vital service to our community, fostering meaningful moments between families and those in need of end-of-life care.”
Held on September 21 at the Kincardine Pavilion, the seventh annual Handbags for Hospice Gala welcomed approximately 170 people and is the largest annual fundraising event for Huron Shores Hospice. The money raised at this event supports the organization’s residential suites and provides comfort, dignity and quality person-centred care to those living with a life-limiting illness. Funds provided by Bruce Power and suppliers supported this event, along with other fundraising initiatives that benefit this organization.
“On behalf of Bruce Power and our supplier partners, we are proud support the Huron Shores Hospice,” said Mike Rencheck, Bruce Power’s President and CEO. “The kindness, comfort and care the Hospice provides to people and their families is so important to our community.”
