Your Impact

“It comes from my heart”

When the pandemic struck one year ago, Rowena could never have guessed how her life would be turned upside down. As a personal care attendant at Kensington Gardens long-term care home, Rowena wanted to keep everyone safe. Travelling back and forth to work, she worried about the safety of her family. With five people living in one house, what if she got them sick?

Thank you for giving

It started with a Friend of Kensington, a longtime donor and supporter. She saw the need on Kensington’s front line and wanted to help. So she put forward a community challenge, offering to match all donations up to $50,000. We put out the call to the Kensington community who raised over $102,000! To all of you, who responded in so many ways wanting to do something in support of our heroic frontline workers: THANK YOU!
