We have a special initiative underway here at Shalom called Blooms of Honour and have just five days to go!
Running from Mother’s Day to Father’s Day, this annual campaign is a beautiful time for our community to come together to enrich the spaces our seniors call home.
Your support has the unique opportunity to transform functional spaces into places of connection, comfort, and belonging across two wonderful projects:
• Shalom – Grimsby Courtyard: We are raising $40,000 to create a new, fully accessible outdoor seating area in our existing gardens so residents can comfortably experience the restorative gift of fresh air and connect with visiting family.
• Faithstone – Hamilton Courtyard: We are raising $100,000 to construct the gardens and courtyards for our brand-new home, ensuring our Christian heritage of care blooms for a new generation of seniors.
For clarity…Blooms of Honour is not exclusively an "in memoriam" campaign. While that is a deeply profound way to honour the legacy of a parent, grandparent, or friend who is no longer with us, it is equally intended to be a live celebration of those we care about today. This campaign is a perfect opportunity to express your gratitude for them and celebrate their life today.
For every gift received, the name of an honouree can be written on a beautiful paper tulip. These blooms have been adorning our glass windows, creating a visible "Garden of Honour" for our residents to enjoy.
We invite you to take part in whatever way speaks to your heart and you can find more information on our website.
Honouring our parents is a lifelong calling—one rooted in love, gratitude, and faith. Whether you choose to direct your gift toward the immediate comfort of our Grimsby courtyard or plant a seed for the future at Faithstone, your generosity ensures our relational care continues to bloom.
To give, there are several options:
• Online via our website shalommanor.ca/donate or
• Send an e-transfer directly to [email protected] with a notation about how you would like to direct your gift.
Thank you for your support and for keeping the legacy of excellent Christian care alive in our homes.
