Who CapitalCare Foundation Helps
We invite you to join us by supporting the work of the Foundation to
improve the lives of residents and their families. Together, we can make a difference by facilitating positive change that enriches the lives of seniors and residents in long-term assisted living.
The CapitalCare Foundation is dedicated to our seniors in care, bridging the gap between government funding and the essentials to aid CapitalCare residents. Our funds provide live music, art, recreation programming and supplies that enhance their quality of life programs especially during the shorter days. Together as a community, we have allowed CapitalCare to purchase specialized equipment, renovate buildings, provide educational assistance for staff, and enhance programming. All of these items, and many others, add to residents’ quality of life.
We’re committed to providing funds for programs, equipment, staff education, and capital building projects. Our staff and board of volunteer trustees work with many partners in the community, both corporate and individual.
Our goals and support areas have not changed over time, but the need for additional financial resources has increased. This is mainly due to shifts in government funding and the increase in our aging population, creating a greater demand for specialized programs, homelike centres, and new continuing care delivery options.
To meet the challenges of providing the best continuing care for the community, we need to be flexible, responsive, and forward-thinking. The work of CapitalCare Foundation is key to these efforts.
