Garden Of Hope

With our Home for Hope complete, the balance of our lot at 45 Edward St. in Penetanguishene is ready to construct the Garden of Hope, a space to nurture, inspire and heal.

Organic in nature and accessible for all members of the Centre and the Community, this unique space is designed to lift spirits and promote HOPE, with a natural reflective, quiet environment, with healing benefits.

The many soft elements will nurture the mind, body and soul. This outdoor oasis expands our program area for exercise, music, writing, drumming and silent meditation.

The central covered gazebo (under-design) will provide an exciting circular focal point for activities.

The eternal flame will memorialize loved ones passed. Gardens and trees will identify donors who have impacted the Centre.

The bridge, designed by LA Ironwerks is a spectacular work of art to grace our new park.

The Garden will be an inclusive place to seek hope and serenity. Community may share opportunities to enjoy the healing garden for personal journeys.

Please support this unique project to benefit of our cancer families and local community.
