The Healing Cycle Foundation wishes to honour the end-of-life journey taken by those living with a life-threatening illness, by raising and stewarding funds in support of hospice palliative care programs that compassionately uphold the dignity of individuals at the end of their life and their loved ones.
With the belief that dying is a part of living, our aim is to support individuals and their families through a difficult life passage in the hope that the experience will be manageable and meaningful. We value the quality of end-of-life and believe that individuals and their families should receive physical, emotional, psychosocial, and spiritual support during the hospice palliative care journey.
