gifts of remembrance

Gifts in memory are a meaningful way to express your sympathy and respect when remembering a friend or family member. Hospice & Palliative Care of Washington County has grown from a dream to a self-sustaining reality over the past 28 years, through the generosity of contributors like you.

No one is ever turned away from our doors based on their ability to pay.

Hospice services are covered by reimbursement from Medicare, Medicaid and most private insurance. In most cases, reimbursement covers about two-thirds of the actual costs associated with hospice care. Thus, Hospice must rely on the generosity of donors to help meet one third of its operating expenses. Your unrestricted gifts provide significant support, enabling us to continue providing compassionate care for every patient and serving family members after their loved one is gone. Gifts also help us continue our outreach and educational programs, grief support and loss services, and the Transitions palliative care program.

Please call 503-648-9565 to speak to the Development Director to discuss your gift or if you wish to "donate later" through a planned gift. You can choose to remember the Foundation in your will or you can reflect your charitable intentions in your long-term financial planning. Explore planned giving options with your financial planner or attorney.
