Night at the Museum
THANK YOU for supporting NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM: TRIVIA CHALLENGE

October 2023
As we approach our year-end fundraising campaign, I encourage you to read The 2022 Impact Report, published by the Foundation in July. The report demonstrates, in a tangible way, the collective impact of community donations on the quality of care at St. Patrick’s Home.
You’ll see how community donations provided the Spiritual and Pastoral Care team with the resources to make more than 2,700 pastoral visits – to check in, have a chat, listen, pray, or deliver the sacrament, the Anointing of the Sick. You can imagine how important these visits are to the residents, and how they contribute to the health, well-being and quality of life of the residents.
You’ll also see how your donations supported the delivery of Holy Mass six days/week, music therapy, social engagement activities, employee training in DementiAbility Methods, and so much more. This is how your dollars were put into action to make a difference!
We are grateful for the care, loyalty and open heart that you have for St. Pat’s, so please know that your support matters here, and it is appreciated.
Here’s to doing more good together in 2023 and 2024!
Thank you!
