Community Support

Roots & Roads Community Hospice Foundation supports individuals and their loved ones through the end-of-life process by funding the We Honor Veterans program and community Bereavement services.

Hospice staff offer a special ceremony in honor of veterans which includes the gathering of friends and family for a presentation of a formal certificate and keepsake blanket, often accompanied by the official song of the veteran’s branch of service.

Bereavement Support

Community bereavement books and journals are given free of charge to members of the public who are grieving the death of a loved one and are participating in support groups, meetings, and classes. Roots & Roads believes this program is vital because of the many services it provides to help families and friends cope with the death of a loved one.

We Honor Military Veterans

Roots and Roads Community Hospice Foundation honors military veterans at end-of-life by supporting local hospices recognized as partners in the national We Honor Veterans program.

Dear Sir or Madam, Enclosed is a check for the Foundation.  I read one of your goals was education of the community.  If possible I would like my donation to be directed to the education of oncologists about the services of hospice so referral is made sooner than later.  Not only does the patient need…
