For more detail see our Events page.

 

Dear Friends,

For over 25 years Hospice has provided our communities with choices, relief from pain and eased worries. Our work to relieve suffering will never end.  The average cost of a day of Hospice care is $150.  No reimbursment is enough to cover the cost of daily hospice care. Not even Medicare, Medicaid, and other insurances can cover the entire cost of Hospice care. Some of our community members cannot afford the care and choices they deserve at the end of life. But when you donate, you help us provide care for someone who needs us.

Donating to High Country Hospice
You can make a difference

High Country Health Care System faces many challenges with the growing needs of our communities for Hospice care. High Country Health Care System is a non-profit organization that can give you a tax deductible receipt for all donations as provided by law. Every gift, no matter what size, can make a difference. Ways of donating include:

Memorial/Honorarium Gifts - can be made to High Country Health Care System as a special way to pay tribute to someone who has touched your life. Families often request that donations are made in memory of their loved one and include this information in obituaries.  We will provide the family of the one being remembered/honored with a letter noting your gift without specifying the amount of the contribution.

In-Kind Donations - s uch as furniture from your former vacation home, can be used to raise money for patient services by becoming part of our flea markets and bazaars that are held in each county.

Other Donations - Have you recently sold a car or boat? Consider giving your proceeds to High Country Hospice. Not only will you be helping the terminally ill in your community, you will recieve a tax write off as well.
