Our Hospice • Our Time to Build
CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES
Project Updates!
Ensuring Access to Quality Hospice Care.
We are building Hospice Whitby – Roger Anderson House to bring comfort and support to those nearing the end of life and we are getting closer to the finish line.
Construction continues to move forward throughout the building. Many of the spaces that will soon welcome individuals, loved ones and friends are becoming more recognizable every day. Interior finishes are progressing. The 10 private resident suites, washrooms and gathering spaces are coming to life. Work continues in the kitchen, dining room, great room, welcome area and other important areas of the hospice.
From flooring, lighting and cabinetry to fixtures, finishes and exterior details, the focus is increasingly shifting to the elements that will transform the building into a warm, welcoming hospice home.
We are almost there — but we still need our community’s help to finish what we started.
Join us as we complete Hospice Whitby – Roger Anderson House, where individuals and their loved ones will receive the care, comfort and dignity they need and deserve.
Making Hospice a Home
Every item within Hospice Whitby – Roger Anderson House plays an important role in creating a warm, compassionate, home-like environment.
As we prepare to open our doors, we invite our community to help furnish and equip our new 10-bed hospice residence. From comfortable furnishings to essential care equipment, each item will help us provide exceptional end-of-life care while offering comfort and dignity to residents and their loved ones.

Our Mission
Currently focused on raising approximately $11 million to build a 10-bed hospice residence that will provide compassionate end-of-life care for terminally ill patients and their families. Approximately 20% of the cost is provided by the Ministry of Health ($2.5 million) and the remaining costs needed must be raised by the community. We need your help. The need is great. At present, there is only one hospice residence in Port Perry serving all of Durham.
We Need Your Help
We’ve raised a large portion of the total funds needed for Hospice Whitby – Roger Anderson House. Thank you to the outstanding generosity of the individuals, businesses, service clubs, church and community groups, and others.
It’s a well-known truism of fundraising: the first 80% is hard and we’ve done it. The last 20% is REALLY hard.
