Hospice Care Launches 3rd Annual Hearts for Hospice Care Campaign

Tuesday, February 14, 2012

Hospice Care Corporation has launched its 3rd Annual “Hearts for Hospice Care” fundraiser to increase awareness and raise money for patients who need hospice services.  The campaign will run during the month of February with the support and participation of local businesses and customers.  

The goal for this year’s campaign is still $10,000, which benefits patient care for Hospice Care Corporation a 501(c) 3 non-profit corporation.  Last year, the campaign netted almost $5,000, which there is a lot of opportunity for more participation.  All proceeds will pay for patients and families who do not have insurance or the ability to pay for hospice care services.

The campaign is similar to those run by many national organizations fighting various diseases with one important distinction, “All of the money that is raised will stay right here in our communities to help our friends, neighbors and loved ones,” said Cynthia Woodyard, Vice President of Public Affairs and Access for Hospice Care Corporation. “One dollar donated by many can make a big difference in our loved ones and neighbors lives,” Woodyard added. 

Local businesses, organizations and individuals are encouraged to participate. Here’s how it works. You can support Hospice Care’s mission through a corporate sponsorship or allow your customers to donate $1 or more and proudly honor their loved one on a heart displayed in your business.  All contributions are tax deductible. Hospice Care provides you with all of the materials and you just have to make the call.
