Center for Hospice Care’s DNA is intertwined with the community. We exist because of the vision and collaboration of community members and organizations that helped launch us. That memory is part of what fuels our commitment to improve the quality of living in the community.
It’s part of the reason we collaborate with and support other organizations to serve the community. There are more than 40 local not-for-profits we partner with regularly – along with countless others we support throughout the year. This support ranges from hosting community events, offering the use of our conference spaces, and supporting fundraising events hosted by our partners.
We are humbled that our impact has been recognized throughout the community with several special awards.
