A Gift in Memory is a special way for family and friends to express their sympathy while helping to advance healthcare in the community and beyond.
Many people choose to make these gifts in lieu of flowers.
If you wish to include East Kootenay Foundation for Health or one of the health care funds and facilities that we support in an obituary, an example of wording can be:
“in lieu of flowers please consider a donation to the East Kootenay Foundation for Health in support of (health care facility or area of interest)”.
Donations may be made in memory by checking the “I would like to dedicate this gift” option on our online donation form. You can also mail donations to us with a short note indicating the name of the person you wish to honour to 13 24th Ave N, Cranbrook BC, V1C 3H9, or donate over the phone by calling 250-489-6481.
The East Kootenay Foundation for Health will acknowledge all donations given in memory by sending a note to the next of kin with an expression of sympathy.
