Help Grieving Children by Volunteering at Bright Star

Volunteers come from all walks of life and contribute a few hours per month on a regular basis.

Donate to the Health First Foundation

The life-saving and humanitarian efforts of all Health First entities have always relied in part on the generous time, energy and financial gifts of local residents.

Through support of the Health First Foundation, facilities can be built and renovated, new patient services launched, life-saving equipment purchased, and high-quality doctors and nurses recruited and retained. There are many ways to give and the list of donors includes individuals who have given:

• Gifts of cash
• Appreciated securities
• Real estate
• Stock
• Life insurance
• Annuities

Plus, through the use of corporate matching gifts, many companies encourage their employees to make charitable contributions. Some individuals prefer to include Health First in their wills or trusts. We would be happy to discuss the advantages of charitable gift-planning options with you, and we hope you'll consider making a donation to Hospice of Health First through the Health First Foundation.

For additional information, please contact Jeanene Donilon, Director of Individual Giving at 321.434.7353.

William Childs Hospice House Brick Paver Program

To provide continued support of the William Childs Hospice House, commemorative bricks can be purchased to honor your loved ones. Each brick will be placed in one of the pathways surrounding the Hospice House, and a semi-annual Brick Paver service will be held in the spring and fall that allows for family members to see their bricks.

Call the Health First Foundation Office at 321.434.7353 for more information on the William Childs Hospice House Brick Paver Gift Program or other ways to support Hospice of Health First.
