What a summer!

Thanks to the incredible efforts of our residences and communities across the country, this year’s National Summer Fundraiser raised an amazing $170,000 for Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime - Rêver pour la vie!

Throughout the summer, residents, employees, families, and community members came together through creative events and activities, all with one goal in mind: helping grant meaningful wishes for seniors across Canada.

Thank you to everyone who organized an event, participated, donated, volunteered, or helped spread the word. This incredible result belongs to all of you.

We can’t wait to see the wishes your support will help bring to life!

Truth and Reconciliation

Today is an opportunity to listen, learn, reflect, and deepen our understanding of the histories and lived experiences of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.

We encourage our continued learning by exploring the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation resources available on the Government of Canada website: https://www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/campaigns/national-day-truth-reconciliation.html
