Fall Fundraiser
Each year Community Hospital Health Foundation hosts a
gala event in which the community is invited to
participate. From 1998 through 2004, the event was
entitled “An Evening for Hospice”. In
2005, we took a brief change of direction to celebrate
20 years of Community Hospital Health Foundation’s
existence. Although the theme was focused on celebrating
growth over time, the proceeds were directed to Hospice
services. In 2006 the gala event returned to “An Evening
for Hospice”.
We extend a thank you to the many sponsors, donors
and bidders at the live and silent auctions. Through
their support funds have been raised to provide funding
for home and hospital hospice care, family support
materials and continued education and training for our
wonderful Hospice nurses.
The most important aspect of the Fall Fundraiser is
the tremendous support given by members of our greater
community. People and business owners give generously
because they recognize how fortunate we are to have
healthcare available here, at home. They know that
philanthropy supports the professionals and staff at
Community Hospital and their gifts make the difference
between adequate services and the best care we can
offer.
In the years to come we will continue to plan and
implement an annual event in the fall that is both a
fundraiser for healthcare and an opportunity for the
community to come together for a great cause.
