WINDSOR, ONT. A hospice specifically for those experiencing homelessness has received a $1 million donation toward a newly renovated facility thanks to a Leamington family. The Iacobelli family has donated the funds to The Journey Home Hospice, the only hospice specifically for Toronto’s homeless community. The facility will open its renewed space on Wednesday which the organization said was made possible “in large part” thanks to the family’s donation. “This tremendous gift allowed us to safely bring together all the components needed to increase our capacity by 150 per cent and support about 100 homeless people needing palliative care per year,” said Nancy Lefebre, executive director of Saint Elizabeth Foundation, the operator of Journey Home Hospice.
