Supporting Oceanside Hospice Society 2024

At some time, in some way, we must all face the end of life, and most of us share a common hope – that when death comes to us or a loved one, it will be peaceful. We hope to be surrounded by those we love, feeling safe, comfortable and cared for.

Thank you to our generous and thoughtful community, Family Ford was able to donate $6,600 to Oceanside Hospice Society from the fundraising in 2024!

There is considerable fear, avoidance and denial around the end of life. Hospice is here to support and educate the community about the value of acknowledging, savouring and sharing the time and the relationships each of us has left.

Oceanside Hospice Society (OHS) is a non-profit charity that was incorporated in 1990.

• Community funded and volunteer-driven
• Over 60 volunteers and six staff serving individuals and families facing end-of-life.
• They focus on patient comfort and quality of life during the patients' final months and days.
• Their services are offered free of charge to those in the Oceanside communities of Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Nanoose, Deep Bay, Bowser, Qualicum Bay, Errington, Coombs, Hilliers and Whiskey Creek.
• They also support patients at Oceanside Hospice at Trillium, in homes, and in the community.
• Their volunteers are trained in companionship, grief support, palliative vigils, Reiki and Healing Touch.

Supporting Mount Arrowsmith Food Bank 2023

A massive shoutout to our incredible community for joining forces and creating magic together!

Thanks to your boundless generosity and vehicle purchases, we proudly donated a staggering $6,262 and an entire Ford F-150 Lightning truck bed filled to the brim with non-perishable food and toys to the Mount Arrowsmith Salvation Army, serving the PQB area. Your kindness knows no bounds, and together, we've made a meaningful impact in our community.

Supporting the Springford Foundation 2022

Colin was a respected and passionate advocate for agriculture in the region. Known for his straightforward and common-sense approach, he gave generously of his time and knowledge, always eager to lend a hand.

Colin always held a special place in his heart for children and youth. While operating Town & Country Construction, he offered free sand to anyone building a sandbox. While his children were growing up, he volunteered his time and expertise as a 4-H Leader and an adult advisor for the Canadian Junior Hereford Association. And during his time at the Coombs Farmers’ Institute, Colin made it his mission to build up their student scholarship program. He was also a long-time supporter of the Nanoose Community Services food bank and Christmas Elf Program.

While Colin would never have described himself as a philanthropist, he never hesitated to support causes he believed in. He often did so quietly, with no need or expectation for public recognition. It’s simply who he was.

We will be supporting the Springford Foundation with $100 donation from EVERY vehicle sold at Family Ford throughout December 2022 and January 2023. Have a look through our inventory, including incoming vehicles!

You can also donate directly to the foundation through the Parksville Qualicum Foundation website, by mail or at the Springford Farm Market.
