About
PalliAmi Foundation’s mission is to offer services and compassionate support to people receiving palliative and end-of-life care, as well as to their loved ones, in order to ease this final stage of life by creating moments filled with humanity for those who are leaving, while providing comfort and reassurance to those who remain. The values that guide the Foundation are kindness, dignity, and innovation: each person is welcomed with empathy, respect, and care, in an environment that recognizes the uniqueness and worth of every individual, while embracing new approaches to improve the quality of care and support offered.
The Foundation’s mission is carried out in particular with older adults who are alone and vulnerable, through a human and personalized approach focused on respect, dignity, and compassion. It offers attentive support to people at the end of life, providing them with a peaceful and warm environment, and above all, a caring presence.
The PalliAmi Foundation also offers bereavement support services across Quebec, helping individuals cope after the loss of a loved one. Through one-on-one meetings (in person, by phone, or via videoconference) or support groups (in person or online), these services provide a space for compassionate listening, encouraging the expression of emotions and adjustment to this new reality. True to its mission, the Foundation ensures that no one goes through this difficult period in isolation, by offering human and attentive support to those who are grieving.
Our Impact
The impact of the PalliAmi Foundation is felt first and foremost by people at the end of life, who benefit from compassionate, personalized support in a peaceful and warm environment. This care helps to ease anxiety, reduce isolation, and preserve each person’s dignity until the very last moment. The Foundation ensures that everyone is surrounded, listened to, and respected, even when they are alone or vulnerable. In addition, the Foundation supports grieving loved ones through bereavement services available across Quebec, offering a compassionate space to express their sorrow, find comfort, and begin their healing journey through loss. In this way, the Foundation is present at every stage of this life passage, creating a lasting human impact both for those who leave and for those who remain.
How your gift will be used
Donations received by the PalliAmi Foundation are used to provide services and support to people in palliative and end-of-life care, their loved ones, as well as to those who are grieving. These donations help fund the basic and ongoing training of volunteer caregivers, finance various therapeutic services, and contribute to improving comfort and enhancing the physical environment. The goal is to offer warm spaces where patients can live their final days with dignity, surrounded by their loved ones, and where bereaved individuals can find a space to express their pain. Donations also support research in palliative care, the acquisition of furniture, equipment, and supplies, as well as the organization of activities aimed at improving the quality of life for patients and their families.
It is important to emphasize that the PalliAmi Foundation receives no government funding: its services are funded exclusively by the generosity of donors. All services offered by the Foundation are free for patients, their loved ones, and the bereaved. This financial independence enables the Foundation to ensure the sustainability of these services, thereby guaranteeing support that is compassionate, dignified, and respectful, regardless of the beneficiaries’ financial situation.
