Overview

Lighting the Way … denotes a path or journey – for those who are ill and their caregivers, for those who have had a loved one die, and for the community as a sign of support for compassion and palliative care.

Lighting the Way … raises much needed funds to support the programs of SASHA serving St. Albert and Sturgeon County families who are affected by or living with a life-limiting illness whether they are at home, in hospice, or hospital.

Lighting the Way … offers an opportunity for the community to come together and show their support through corporate sponsorship or donations to light the trees surrounding Foyer Lacombe Hospice.

Lighting the Way … not only brings cheer during the festive season to the families and residents of the hospice and long-term care facilities, but the lights on the hill are enjoyed by the entire community.

Lighting the Way … is an acknowledgment that we live in a caring and compassionate community.

From November 16th, 2023 to January 31st, 2024 the bulbs will light the trees surrounding Foyer Lacombe Hospice, which sits atop St. Albert's Mission Hill. 

Community members, local businesses and organizations have the opportunity to buy individual bulb(s) or sponsor an entire tree within a grove of 20 spruce trees on the east side of the Hospice as well as within a grove of 9 deciduous trees on the west side of the Hospice close to the entrance of the building.

Hospice & long term care residents, as well as the community at large, will once again be able to enjoy the benefit of bringing beautiful light into the darkness of winter.

Each year, with the support of the community, the campaign will continue to grow ~ with more bulbs being lit for all to admire and enjoy.
