Congrats to the incredible family behind Cans for Cause on raising $25,000 for Roger Neilson Children’s Hospice! Their generosity and commitment are creating a lasting impact for the children and families we serve. Thank you for making a difference, one can at a time.

We are deeply grateful to have such a caring and committed community standing beside us and the children and families we serve.

❤️We are proud to announce that Cans for Cause has raised $25,000 in 2026!❤️

Thanks to the generosity and support of our community, we have been able to kick-start the Emil Lacelle Endowment Fund in support of Roger Neilson Children’s Hospice. This is a meaningful milestone and an important step toward making a lasting difference.

This achievement would not have been possible without the individuals, families, local businesses, and community partners who contributed, spread the word, and helped bring this vision to life. We are truly blessed to have such a supportive community and family standing behind us.

Below, we are highlighting some of the incredible community partners who helped make this possible. There are so many more who have contributed along the way, and while we may not be able to name everyone, please know that each and every contribution is valued and deeply appreciated.

Together, we are making a difference one can at a time.

As we celebrate what we’ve accomplished together, we look forward to seeing what 2027 will bring.

With heartfelt appreciation,

The Cans for Cause

This Worldwide Bereaved Siblings Month, we honour the unique experiences of children and youth grieving the loss of a sibling.

Through our expanded grief support services, we offer support for children and youth navigating the loss of someone significant in their lives, including siblings.

For Chloe and Maira, connecting with others who understand has made a meaningful difference.

As Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month comes to a close, supporting families is at the heart of our work. Grief may change over time, but it never completely goes away. Remembering their babies, sharing their stories, and honouring their life can be an important part of the journey.

For many families, memory making can be an important part of their perinatal grief journey. Keepsakes, community events and meaningful traditions can help preserve memories and acknowledge a child’s life and legacy.

We are privileged to support families in creating these cherished moments, with memory-making activities tailored to their unique wishes and needs.
