Casino of the Rockies Donates in Support of Hospice

August 6th, 2026

The East Kootenay Foundation for Health is grateful to Casino of the Rockies for their generous donation in support of the Cranbrook Kimberley Hospice Society’s future Hospice House. Casino of the Rockies chose to direct their donation of $3727.50 to the Hospice House project in recognition of the importance of providing individuals and their families with a compassionate place to spend precious time together and say their goodbyes. The future Hospice House will offer a beautiful, peaceful, and comforting home-like environment where families can receive end-of-life care with dignity, away from a clinical setting.

Thank you to the team at Casino of the Rockies for selecting the East Kootenay Foundation for Health and the Cranbrook Kimberley Hospice Society as your charity of choice. Your generosity is helping bring this much-needed project closer to becoming a reality and will have a lasting impact on families throughout our community.

Our Starlite Hospice video inspired their donation. If you would like to learn more about what a compassionate hospice home will mean to the East Kootenay, you can view the video at: https://youtu.be/pay09nJojYk.
