Hospice

Celebrates 25 Years

To the Editor:

Regional Hospice is celebrating its 25th year of providing care, comfort, and compassion. From the beginning, Regional Hospice focused on building partnerships with volunteers in order to build a strong foundation for our agency. Today, more than ever, we recognize the important dedication of our volunteers and thank them for their tireless efforts.

The theme of National Volunteer Week, April 27–May 3, is “Volunteer to Change the World.” At Regional Hospice we see how volunteers change the world each and every day. Our volunteers visit with patients, reach out to those who are grieving, help in our office, raise contributions, serve on our board of directors, and provide professional expertise. Their dedication to bringing Regional Hospice’s Caring Continuum of programs to anyone who can benefit from our care is an inspiration to all of us.

To the thousands of volunteers who have supported Regional Hospice for the past 25 years, we thank you and honor your commitment to volunteerism.
