Our Purpose: The Foundation works to ensure that ALL in need of hospice, regardless of financial status or life situation, receive care. 

It aids patients and families with essential non-hospice related expenses that are NOT covered under Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance-such as rent, food, utility bill, nutritional supplements, personal care items and supplies. 

In addition, funding is available for situations that go beyond daily needs, community projects like bereavement support for adults and children and educational outreach programs on end-of-life issues.

Our Impact: Thanks to the support of donors, Tidelands Community Hospice, for forty years, has provided care, beyond the traditional hospice role, to over 12, 000 patients and families. We have helped them navigate difficult and challenging times. 

Donor support allows us to provide care to ALL in need of hospice. Regardless of ability to pay or life situation, NO one in need is turned away. 

Donations enable adult Bereavement support groups and the Good Mourning program for children and adolescents to be available to ALL, not just hospice families, at no charge.

DONATIONS

Donations to the Foundation directly support the services provided by Tidelands Community Hospice. As a locally based and governed 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit, donations go to work at once to meet the needs of those we serve and remain in the community.


Join us in making an impact in the lives of those we serve.
Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us provide
care, comfort and support to those who need it most.
