Special Events and Fundraising
Home Health and Hospice Care would be unable to provide services to people regardless of their ability to pay if it were not for the community support received through special events and through the contributions made by individuals. The Office of Development frequently answers questions from generous donors about how to make a financial contribution. Answers to many of these questions can be found below.
In addition, HHHC's site offers the convenience and safety of making an online donation. Simply click HERE to go to the secure site.
