Ava's Story: https://www.emilyshouse.ca/our-stories/ava-and-avas-garden-story/ 

In response to COVID-19, Emily’s House has been providing music therapy, recreational play video broadcasts of accessible activities, respite programming, and Zoom group supports … to help these children and their families. From a physical distance, they have been delivering normalcy, fun, and joy. Therapies and activities for children are being modified, adapted, and delivered as safely as possible … to add quality to life.

To do this more effectively, technology needs to be in the hands of these families. So, this year’s holiday wish list includes items like tablets, computer laptops, and chrome books. This year we are encouraging the online donations of funds which will be collected to make a group purchase of technology for children receiving hospice care, as well as being applied to the items on the 2020 Wish List which are so critical in assisting families during this difficult time. 

Philip Aziz Centre for Hospice Care and Emily’s House provides medical respite, practical, emotional, grief and bereavement support to people living with life-limiting illnesses in the comfort of their own home, or in Toronto’s first pediatric residential hospice … plus children’s recreation, music therapy, and day camps! Our programs support children, adults, caregivers, siblings, and survivors at no cost to them.
