Memorial & Honorarium Gifts
You are making a difference when you give to a not-for-profit organization like 3HC. Your donation helps to provide services and care to people who might not otherwise have access to them. Your donation also funds extra touches that go above & beyond for patients and families through additional family-centered programs and services. These extra touches often cost more than the reimbursement, and most times, are not reimbursable at all. Your donation makes an impact!
Giving… In Memory or Honor of Your Loved One
Many family and friends find memorial gifts as a meaningful way to honor the memory of someone special in their life. Families often specify memorials to 3HC, “in lieu of flowers” in funeral notices, as a way of honoring loved ones at the time of death. A gift “in honor of” gives you the opportunity to express your love and respect for a family member, friend, co-worker or other individual. Many choose memorial and honorarium contributions as a way to commemorate the birthday or anniversary of a loved one each year. A letter announcing your gift will be sent to the person honored by your contribution, or the family of the person your contribution is in memory of.
We thoughtfully offer additional ways to remember or honor your loved one through the Walk of Life or Wings of Life located at 3HC’s Kitty Askins Hospice Center.
