From the website: The EKR foundation is dedicated to preserving and promoting the pioneering life work of Elisabeth Kübler-Ross MD and others committed to compassionate care for those who are near the end of life, those who have died, their loved ones, and their caregivers.
Dr. EKR passed away on August 24, 2004. Elisabeth's children, Kenneth and Barbara, felt it was vitally important that their mother's spirit and legacy continue through the formation of the EKR Foundation.
The mission of the EKR Foundation is simple: continue Elisabeth's life work: life, death, compassion.
Still in its infancy, the EKR Foundation has outlined some of its future plans.
• The Elisabeth House – Community Compassion Centers located all over the world
• Annual Grief and Bereavement Conferences in collaboration with the MISS Foundation
• Educational Campaigns
• Symbolic Grief Support™ Programs
“The ultimate lesson all of us have to learn is unconditional love, which includes not only others but ourselves as well.” Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
