In Memoriam Gifts

For many, the most meaningful way to honour the life of a relative, friend, or colleague is through a heartfelt contribution to the place that played a special role in that person's life.

When you make a memorial donation to the Perley Health Foundation, you honour a special life by ensuring excellent resident care is available to the Seniors and Veterans who call Perley home.
