Join Us
Kairos House is located in Edmonton and provides support to persons living with HIV and AIDS. One of only two groups of its kind in Alberta, it houses up to eight people with the disease who require support.
Helping those in need is not seasonal, which is why our organization is always looking for new members to assist us with our community based programs.

Commander's Address
Provided by Chapter Commander David McLeod at the Robbie Burns Fundraising Dinner.
Norwood Palliative Care has been the recipient of funds from The Order of St. Lazarus Edmonton Commandery for the renovation of rooms for end of life care. We want families to feel comfortable while visiting their loved one and sometimes that means spending one night, or many nights by their side. Our new rooms have Murphy Beds, cupboards, dimmer switch lighting, beautiful decorations, comfortable beds with linens, comfort carts with tea and coffee, and each room is decorated beautifully. It is definitely well received and appreciated by so many.
