The mission of Heaven’s Door is to assist those with advanced terminal illnesses, to maintain dignity, function and a high quality of life throughout their course of illness. Heaven’s Door is more than just a non-profit. The goal is to provide a respite from medical settings, chemotherapy and radiation treatments; to provide a retreat for adult and pediatric patients dealing with cancer.
