Construction Progress (December 2024)
December 30, 2024
We are excited to share a significant milestone in the construction of the Mitchell Hospice House. Thanks to the incredible generosity and support of our community, partners, and dedicated volunteers, the project is progressing efficiently. The vision of creating a compassionate, peaceful, and home-like environment for those in need of end-of-life care is becoming a reality.
Construction crews have completed the flooring, painting, kitchen, dining room, laundry rooms, and resident rooms. We are on track for the grand opening the beginning of the year 2025 and look forward to providing a place of comfort, dignity, and care to individuals and families during a challenging time.
This project would not be possible without the kindness and dedication of all those who have contributed—whether through financial donations, volunteer hours, or sharing their expertise. Your support has been integral to the progress we've made, and we are truly grateful for your commitment to making this important resource available to our community.
We look forward to the continued collaboration as we work to bring Mitchell Hospice House to life, offering compassionate care and peace of mind to those who need it most.
Thank you again to everyone involved—your generosity is making a lasting impact.
