At Ontario Shores, we recognize the importance of enhancing the quality of life for seniors living with dementia and age-related illness and/or other complex mental health challenges. You can provide our geriatrics patients with a sense of dignity, respect, autonomy and connection. Help create an environment that promotes safety, security and serenity by contributing to the purchase of a Wellness Nordic Chair or other sensory items.

One in five Ontario children and adolescents experience a mental health issue serious enough to affect their everyday life. For many youths and their families, Ontario Shores is their last hope to find the care they desperately need. You can give these young people the chance to feel supported and hopeful about their future. Help buy supplies for a new Therapeutic Photography Program and other experiential opportunities that set them on the right path towards healing.

Forensic mental health patients face the weight of stigma related to their mental health and their criminal history. In reality, they are people seeking stability, connection and a path forward. You can help steer them from stigma to strength as they work to transition back into the community. Contribute to the purchase of gym equipment, clothing, or access to housing for people who just want to rebuild their lives.

With the holiday season approaching, consider the patients who will spend the holidays in hospital at Ontario Shores and not celebrating at home with loved ones. Your contribution helps fill a gift bag with essentials and comforts for patients in need. Your caring act of compassion will spread joy, uplift spirits, and impact their wellbeing and recovery. Remind patients they are not alone during the holidays. Be a Holiday Hope Hero.
