You Helped Us Light Up a Life This Holiday Season



Once again, you have helped us exceed our goal to help Seasons of Life Hospice House! 

In total, our year end direct mail appeal at the Howard Young Foundation raised $191,605.76 from 274 generous donors through 281 gifts. Specifically by fund, our donors requested $128,033.88 be dedicated to Hospice Patient Services, with the remaining $63,571.88 designated as the donors requested for other hospital funds so in total the entire $191K will benefit the great healthcare provided to our communities by our two hospitals and Seasons of Life Hospice House.


We are so proud to exceed our year end goal of raising $100,000 for Hospice Patient Services. Because of our donors, 512 days of patient care at Aspirus Seasons of Life Hospice House can be covered in the future. Our community is AMAZING! In addition, donors have had their names, and the name(s) of those they honor listed on a sign next to the beautiful tree outside of Aspirus Seasons of Life Hospice House.  We hope you had a chance to stop by and see the beautiful tree lit up with blue lights at night, it was truly is moving. 


Thank you for lighting up a life - you are truly making a difference for patients and their families in our community. 


Additional Help Needed!

Seasons of Life Hospice House is currently hiring nurses. Right now, they are unable to operate at full capacity because they don't have the staff to care for patients in all eight rooms. If you or someone you know might be interested in doing this important and life changing work, please email Christina Osborn, Supervisor or Patient Care at [email protected].
