With gratitude, Kris As I enter my third year of leading the Misericordia Health Centre Foundation, I remain completely in awe of the amazing community that surrounds Misericordia. Even in some of the most challenging times, a bright light of compassion and positivity can always be found from our donors, volunteers, staff, and our patients and residents.
Thank you. At every peak of every wave and everything in between, the outpouring of support you have shown to Misericordia has been beyond touching and incredibly appreciated. Your generosity has brought innovative technology, comforting supports, and hope to patients, residents, and all those who walk through Misericordia’s doors. From Pediatric Dentistry to Long-Term Care to the Eye Care Centre of Excellence – you have strengthened MHC’s ability to provide innovative and compassionate care for all Manitobans. While we remain flexible in our planning for 2022, we do look forward to greeting you in person at our signature MHC events! Mark your calendars – the Misericordia Golf Classic is set for June 16 at Breezy Bend Country Club, the InVision Fall event is set for September 22 at the RBC Convention Centre, and Angel Squad will kick off the holiday season on November 29 right here at MHC! Of course, we are also so excited to see our long-term care residents set off on some “Made in Manitoba” adventures through this year’s Around the World campaign! Beyond our events and campaigns, 2022 will be a year of significant and foundational work for our team. We aim to engage in strategic planning to set many important priorities and plans in place that will continue to allow us to support MHC as it evolves to meet the health-care needs of our community.

With gratitude, Kris Thank you for giving the gift of adventure! Your amazing outpouring of support ensured that publicity was off the charts for our Around the World campaign earlier this year. Because of this, one lucky resident’s story caught the attention of some movers and shakers in the world of travel. A refresher on that story: To say that Geraldine Anderson likes polar bears is an understatement. The Misericordia Place resident’s room door is adorned with polar bears, she has a polar bear mug, framed pictures of polar bears, a polar bear blanket – you get the idea! Naturally, Geraldine’s dream destination would be to journey throughout the Arctic with special attention to Churchill. Thanks to the amazingly generous teams at Calm Air & Lazy Bear Expeditions, Geraldine’s dreams recently came true! From October 25-28, she adventured in the Arctic, trekking the tundra keeping her eyes peeled for polar bears. We can’t thank her hosts enough for making this incredible opportunity possible – a thought she echoes with her whole heart! I still can't believe this. My whole life I've dreamed of coming to Churchill to see the polar bears and I am so grateful to everyone who made my dreams come true. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, everyone, for your role in making dreams like this come true. Your support means the world to all of us at MHC!
