“The staff and employees here at Birchwood Dairy are committed to supporting the children and families at Canuck Place.

We are honoured to partner with a charity that serves families from the valley and all over BC, locally in Abbotsford. Canuck Place, Children’s Hospice, is British Columbia and Yukon’s pediatric palliative care provider.

Over 830 children living with life-threatening illnesses and families from five provincial health regions receive Canuck Place inpatient and community care (in-home/in-hospital).

Canuck Place operates 13 patient beds and eight family suites through two hospices in Vancouver and Abbotsford.

Services include medical respite and family support, pain and symptom management, provincial 24-Hour Clinical Care Line, music and recreation therapy, education and art, grief, loss, bereavement counselling and end-of-life care.

With donors, our talented team, including volunteers, we care for children with short lives and the families who love them.”
