Make a Gift in Memory of a Loved One
Memorial donations are donations given in memory of someone who has passed away. Memorial gifts are a beautiful way to honor someone’s life because the gifts provide compassionate care to other community members who might not be able to afford the care that they receive.
Include the name of your loved one with your donation, either on the online donation form or on the memo line of your check or in a separate note.
Obituary Donations
Including Home Health & Hospice in your loved one’s obituary is a beautiful way to make an impact in the community. The following text has all of the necessary information and can be included at the end of an obituary:
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to UVM Health Network – Home Health & Hospice (or a specific program, such as McClure Miller Respite House), 1110 Prim Road, Colchester, VT 05446 or give online at www.uvmhomehealth.org/give.
We will thank each donor who gives in memory of your loved one and provide you with names and addresses if you wish to personally thank them.
Make a gift to our endowment
A gift to our endowment will ensure our financial stability long into the future. All endowed gifts are carefully invested and the interest earned provides crucial funding every year.
