Founded in 1959 by members of the North American Baptist Churches of B.C.—who envisioned a Christian community that offered accommodation and support to those in need—Evergreen Baptist first opened its doors in 1962. Over the past 50 years, our facilities have continued to grow as that vision expanded. Today, Evergreen Baptist Campus of Care—a contracted service-provider for the Fraser Health Authority and BC Housing —offers 110 units of subsidized supportive housing, 84 one-bedroom units of assisted living, and 157 units of complex care

The Canadian Paediatric Foundation (CPF) was established in 1985 as a charitable organization to help the Canadian Paediatric Society (CPS) fulfill its mission. Funds raised helped the CPS develop health information for Canadian families, provide education for those caring for children and youth and support advocacy on child health issues. Much has changed since the CPF was founded in 1985. What is unchanged however is our commitment to the health and well-being of children and youth in Canada and abroad. In 2005, the foundation celebrated its 20th anniversary. Part of that celebration included a new name and identity: Healthy Generations: Building a Future for Children and Youth.

La mission du Manoir est d’accueillir les parents d’enfants malades qui doivent séjourner dans la région de Québec pendant l’hospitalisation de ceux-ci. En plus d’alléger le fardeau financier relié à l’hébergement standard, le Manoir permet aux parents de partager leur épreuve avec d’autres familles vivant la même situation dans un milieu convivial. Le quotidien de ces parents peut parfois ressembler à une montagne à surmonter chaque jour, ce sont de véritables héros. Pour répondre à la demande toujours grandissante, le Manoir a dû en 2010 agrandir sa superficie et augmenter sa capacité d’accueil en passant de 19 à 32 chambres afin de satisfaire le plus de familles possible. Notre objectif est d’amasser des fonds pour aider au financement et ainsi continuer à assurer des services de qualité aux familles.
