Story

This year, I’m proud to participate in McCormick Care Foundation’s annual Light Up McCormick campaign. I’m joining forces to bring joy to clients, residents, and families living with dementia while raising essential funds to support long-term and dementia care education. But we can’t do it alone—we need your help!

As students, we’ve learned the value of giving back, which is why we’re aiming to raise $10,000 to light the tallest tree at McCormick. Every donation helps us get closer, but the impact extends far beyond the lights.

Your contribution supports the Learning and Development Centre at McCormick Care Group, home to Ontario’s first Long-Term Care simulation lab, where current and future healthcare professionals are trained to meet the growing demand for dementia and long-term care.

By donating, you’re not just lighting a tree—you’re shaping the future of healthcare. Thank you for sparking the spirit of giving!
