Katies Cottage was the perfect place to stay when our little girl was undergoing surgery. Everything was very clean and comfortable and exactly what we needed during a very stressful week.

Katie’s story and cottage are proof that there is good left in this world. Thank you to Katie, her family and all who carry on her dream.

Katie Cares, We received a Katie Cares package when our 2 year old was admitted into Carman hospital.  He still cuddles the teddy bear at bedtime and the blanket is one of his favourites. May you continue to bring a little sunshine to brighten what can be an overwhelming experience.

Hi, our 4 year little guy had his tonsils out today and was provided with a Katie Cares bag at the Boundary Trails Hospital. What a wonderful gift and thought for all the little ones.  Many thanks, to you and your family.  I googled Katie Cares my heart goes out to you! Thank you.

My 8 year old daughter had to go to hospital last night because she hasn’t been feeling well. After she was admitted at Boundary Trails Hospital, she was scared and tired and the nurse on duty brought in this wonderful bag full of items labeled Katie Cares. It sure helped the process!! Thank you so much for providing something so small to help make kids feel a little bit better about being in such a scary place.

I do not know Travis’ family nor anyone affiliated with Katie Cares, but I was following Travis’ story in the news and it led me to your organization. Katie seemed like such a generous, wonderful girl. I just lost a friend to cancer, and also have young children so your charity is the perfect place to donate. I am so happy to help out!!

Thank you. The stay was excellent and we are very thankful! This Cottage was a huge support while at Boundary Trails Hospital.

The staff are excellent. I have stayed here numerous times – and I always feel like I am at home.

Thank you for this beautiful place of refuge! The peace of God is so very present – the feeling of a beautiful child looking down and smiling. She is looking down from heaven and reminding us that one day she would like us all to join her in her beautiful home in heaven. The staff were so welcoming, loving, and accommodating . Thank you and God bless you Katie and family for your love.
