Friends for Life Matching Donation Campaign

No one wants to be alone at end of life! At Jocelyn House Hospice our staff and volunteers create a sense of community, providing companionship and support to our residents, their family and friends. With the support of you, our friend and donor, we are able to provide a home-like environment where the focus is on the well-being of the whole person; physical, emotional, spiritual and social. Our hospice not only provides excellent medical care; we also create an environment where it is safe for our residents to share their thoughts, hopes and fears during their end of life journey.

Being a Jocelyn House Hospice FRIEND FOR LIFE means that your friendship and financial support enhances the lives of our residents.
