Give a Heart for Hospice in February

During the month of February, several local banks and businesses are hosting the annual “Hearts for Hospice” fundraising event.

When you visit the lobby or drive-through of a participating bank or business, you will have the opportunity to request a memorial heart for a donation of at least one dollar. Donors write their name or the name of the person they are remembering on the heart. Banks and businesses will display your heart throughout the month.

You can also donate online, and we will display your memorial heart at our Compassionate Care Center.

We invite you to help us spread the word by tagging Hospice Care Plus on your social media platforms and using #heartsforhospice when you share a photo of your memorial heart.

All proceeds from Hearts for Hospice support our programs, including hospice care, grief & loss support and education for care givers and families in the counties we serve: Estill, Jackson, Lee, Madison, Owsley, and Rockcastle.
