About Trinity Hospice Foundation

The Trinity Hospice Foundation is non-profit foundation dedicated to the education and support of hospice care and benefits. The Foundation was founded and is funded through donations of friends and family of loved ones who have experienced hospice care and by Trinity Hospice LLC. We serve all through funding of indigent hospice care, projects for hospice education, and special programs with relation to hospice.

Major areas which the foundation supports are:

Funding for indigent hospice care and providing increased access to hospice for those less able to afford hospice care, without regard to the hospice that a patient has chosen.
Specific needs that can be addressed include: groceries, utility assistance, rent assistance, home repairs, car repairs, transportation and other needs generally fall outside the scope of other traditional funding sources like Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance. Application for awards must be received in writing and clearly document the need and other forms of assistance requested.
Community awareness programs can include written materials, videos, speakers, classes, or seminars that allow the public to have a better understanding of hospice services and issues relating to the end of life.
Support of special community-based projects that provide services to hospice patients or professionals in the field of hospice services.
