Light Up Hospice

Remembering your loved one during the holiday season.

We've created this beautiful event to give all those who have grieved the loss of a loved one a unique way to include them in your holiday celebration.

Honor the memory of someone you've lost by sponsoring an item from our display and your selection will burn brightly for the entire month of December. 
Donations over $10 are eligible for a message placed on our indoor tree.

All donations to our 2023 Light Up Hospice event directly support our free grief support for adults, children and youth.

Sponsor an item by "purchasing" it online and receive a tax receipt for your donation. Please allow 3-5 business days to process your order.

Event Details

Our Light Up Hospice event invites all members of our community to enjoy our spectacular holiday display by visiting us day or night at our AVHS Community Office at 2579 10th Avenue.

Our display will be lit up from 9 am – 11 pm daily for the entire month of December. 

You can support the free grief & bereavement services we offer to the community (including to children and youth) by sponsoring a string of decorative lights, a tree, stars and other beautiful holiday décor items that will be part of the display at our community office.

Sponsor an item by "purchasing" it in our online store and receive a tax receipt for your donation. Please allow 3-5 business days to process your order.

Donations over $10 are eligible for a message placed on our indoor tree. Please input a message for us to print on the ornament for you when you are checking out.

Why is the display not at Ty Watson House?

At Ty Watson House, our main priority is our residents and their family members.

Residents and their loved ones should expect compassion when arriving to or departing from the facility.
To protect the peace and privacy of our clients, we felt it would be insensitive to invite members of the public to a growing fundraising display on the premises. 

Ty Watson House continues to be decorated inside and outside for the festive season, for the enjoyment of our residents and their visitors.

Additionally, while Ty Watson House is a partially-fenced property with high-demand parking spots, our Community Office is more accessible to public viewing, situated beside a large park with ample street parking and easy access to the display.
