Guest House Fundraising

 

Fundraising Campaign Launched

 

Brief History


In 1999, the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa held a Dementia Care Forum followed by a city-funded Dementia Respite Care Research Study in 2000. The #1 priority identified by both the Forum and the research was the urgent need for appropriate residential respite for people with Alzheimer Disease and related dementia so their family caregivers could take a well-deserved break.

The Alzheimer Society joined with the Victorian Order of Nurses Ottawa-Renfrew County Branch and The Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre to formulate a solution. The result - plans to build a single-level, home-like bungalow now known as The Guest House – A home away from home.


Fundraising underway


March 9, 2006, the three partnering organizations unveiled architects’ renderings of the Guest House, and officially launched the $2.5 M fundraising campaign. The Guest House – A home away from home open for business in March 2007.

Please see the attached Fact Sheet for more details.

Anyone wishing to contribute to the Guest House – A home away from home may contact Paul Finn, Managing Director of the Perley Rideau Foundation at 526-7173 or foundation@prvhc.com
