Many Have Asked, How Can I Help?

As families and other supporters of End-of-Life Care have a first hand experience with our programs, or learn of our commitment to serve all regardless of ability to pay, they ask – how can we help?

A wide range of tax deductible gift options are available including:

Memorial Gifts and naming opportunities to honor loved ones are available at all levels. Anyone who makes a donation to a memorial fund receives personal acknowledgment and thanks, while families are provided a list of all contributors.

Memorial Donations . . . we have 2 available memorial choices – bricks on the back patio overlook area, as pictured and a stained glass art feature displayed inside the wings of the Hospice Center.

Cash contributions through many conventional methods including multi-year pledges, monthly or quarterly billing, direct withdrawal from checking, and charge card billing.

We use Paypal to securely receive credit card payments & electronic fund transfers.

“Payments are processed, and families notified by SSRCH of memorial gifts if applicable, within 14 days of your gift being made through Pay Pal.  Please call the Development Director at (920) 467-1800 if you need more immediate handling.” 


Gifts of appreciated stock, life insurance, pension funds or other investments.

In-kind services, products and other items for special event auctions (for example - printing, plants, office supplies, furniture).

Organize or sponsor a benefit fund raising event.

Planned Gifts are a way that you can make a substantial gift without affecting your current lifestyle. Anyone expressing the intention of including the Sharon S. Richardson Community Hospice in their estate plans becomes a member of the Legacy Circle. Planned gifts can be directed to the Patient Care Fund, the Sharon S. Richardson Community Hospice Inc. endowment, or to debt reduction.

One of the most important gifts you can make to your family is a well thought out plan for your estate.  An estate plan allows you to make sure that your estate passes to the beneficiaries you want, in the way that you want and when you want.  Planning does not need to be difficult or expensive. Experienced and qualified advisors can help you put into place a plan in an efficient and cost effective way.
