Ways to give

Honorariums and memorials

A tribute gift turns a name into hot meals, rides and company for somebody else's parent.

Occasions

Four reasons people give in someone's name

However you word it, the gift does the same thing: it keeps somebody fed, driven and visited.

  • In memory

    A gift in memory of someone who has died. Families often name us in an obituary in place of flowers.

  • In honour

    Birthdays, anniversaries, retirements — or simply to thank someone who is still here.

  • Thank a caregiver

    A daughter, a neighbour, an aide. We will tell them, in a card, that somebody noticed.

  • Tribute for a group

    Congregations, clubs and workplaces pooling a collection in one person's name.

The card names you as the donor. It never mentions the amount.

Prefer to arrange it by phone?

Ask for development. If there is a funeral date to meet, say so and we will move quickly.

Or give directly

A straightforward one-off or monthly gift, with no card to send.

Questions about tribute gifts

No. The acknowledgement card names you and says a gift has been made in the person's honour or memory. The amount is never disclosed.
