SINCE 1967, CRAIGWIEL GARDENS IS INDEPENDENTLY OWNED BY CRAIGWIEL CORPORATION, GOVERNED BY A VOLUNTEER BOARD OF DIRECTORS. IT IS A NOT FOR PROFIT, CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION.
WE ARE COMMITTED TO PROVIDING QUALITY CARE AND SERVICES THAT ENRICH THE LIVES OF INDIVIDUALS, BOTH THOSE RECEIVING AND OFFERING CARE.
WE ARE NOT OWNED BY ANOTHER ENTITY; NOR DO WE FALL UNDER REGULATIONS IMPOSED UPON US BY ANY OTHER LONG-TERM CARE ENTITY. THIS MEANS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS THE AUTONOMY AND FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE DECISIONS GOVERNED BY RELEVANT LEGISLATION, WHILE HAVING REGARD TO THE NEEDS OF OUR RESIDENTS AND SERVICE USERS.
Founded by the Nairn Mennonite Church to demonstrate Christian values in action, Craigwiel Gardens welcomes and embraces all faiths. As a faith based organization, we respect the dignity and value of all people in accordance with their individual needs and diverse perspectives.
Craigwiel Gardens is an umbrella (not-for-profit) organization that offers four service options, each addressing a particular level of care:
While we will be able to repurpose some of the existing space, the long term care section cannot be reused due to its age. While compassionate care does not rely on bricks and mortar alone, the physical environment of a fully modernized Craigholme will significantly enhance quality of life, comfort and safety for every resident.
Craigholme has the heart, the training and the skills to care for and support a wide range of resident care needs, but our facility’s outdated infrastructure poses a challenge.

Dear Community Member
We want to take this opportunity to personally give you an update on the Craigholme re-development project.
First, we want to assure you that the Home will be built. As you are aware, the pandemic has brought about a dramatic increase in building materials and construction costs. Our project is no exception. Through the project tendering process near the end of last year, it became apparent that the anticipated redevelopment costs have risen dramatically.
This has unfortunately delayed the project timeline as the Craigwiel Gardens Board of Directors continue to investigate various cost-cutting opportunities, financing options, additional government assistance and the possibility of other approaches including phasing the construction.
Although we have reached our campaign pledge goal of $1.25 million, the Campaign Committee has decided they will continue to raise as much money as possible to help alleviate these cost increases. Every additional dollar raised will have a direct impact on future resident care. Please be assured, all monies received from donors are held in a separate account and will not be used until construction begins.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact Ernie Harris, CEO.
Sincerely,
Ernie Harris, CEO
