Valley Hospice Foundation supports the care and comfort of individuals as they approach the end of life. This involves the person’s physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual needs. It also involves providing support to those who love or care for the individual as they participate in this journey and as they deal with the loss of the individual.

The funds raised in the HoliStay Raffle will go directly towards the addition of Music Therapy for the residents of Valley Hospice and their families and caregivers

This year there are 10 incredible prize packages valued over $10,000, featuring Nova Scotia getaways, fun experiences, and quality leisure products. (See the detailed prize list below)

When you support the HoliStay Raffle you’ll be making a meaningful difference.

Music Therapy can provide hospice residents and/or their families with space to explore their emotions and prepare for the road ahead. These opportunities for self-reflection can lead to enhancing, rebuilding or healing relationships with family, friends, and loved ones. Music Therapy also reduces loneliness, affects one’s ability to relax, and promotes comfort and over all quality of life.
