The Near North Palliative Care Network has been providing free visiting hospice palliative care and grief support in the community since 1987. The NNPCN would like to invite the public to their 9th Annual "Live Butterfly Release" happening Saturday July 14, 2018 from 11am to 1pm at the Kiwanis Bandshell Waterfront, North Bay.
NNPCN is a non-profit charity and the Live Butterfly Release is their largest fundraiser. NNPCN releases butterflies as a physical symbol to help the community to create a ceremony of remembering. Butterflies can be a very powerful image and releasing a live butterfly can mean different things to different people. Butterflies can be viewed as a release of the grief but can also be seen as a celebration of life.
With a $30 donation to the non-profit charity, the NNPCN will provide you with a butterfly to release at this event or with a $100 donation NNPCN will provide you with four butterflies to release at the event.
To reserve your butterflies: call (705) 497-9239, or email office@nnpcn.com, or drop by the NNPCN office Monday- Friday from 830 am to 430pm, located at the St. Josephs Motherhouse 2025 Main St. West, North Bay
