"My mother, Mary, wasn’t just the life of the party – she was the party. Always vivacious, she had a very active social life. Daily church services, activities at the senior center, lunch, shopping with friends.
But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit in 2020, everything changed. Her rapid decline was shocking. I worried constantly, lost sleep and neglected my own health.
Thankfully, that's when HopeHealth came into our lives, first with palliative and later hospice care. It was our hospice nurse, Susan, who recognized the toll caregiving was taking on me and recommended HopeHealth’s Alzheimer’s and Dementia Program, which provided four hours of respite care with a CNA, Dina, each week. This support became a lifeline for both Mom and me.
I was nervous about leaving Mom with someone new but on her days with Dina, I would often come home from running errands and hear her laughing, a sound I hadn’t heard in a long time.
Knowing that mom was with someone who really cared about her was priceless.
HopeHealth’s Alzheimer’s and Dementia Program allowed me time to care for myself and it gave me peace of mind, too, because I knew Mom was with someone who truly understood her.
Maybe you know someone who is providing care for a loved one with dementia. Your generosity ensures that HopeHealth can provide care and support to those who need it most.
Thanks to this extraordinary support, my memories of Mom are filled with joy, peace and laughter.
With heartfelt thanks,

Other Ways to Give
Make a Gift of Stock
Making a gift of appreciated stock or other securities (such as bonds or mutual funds), not only allows you to have an immediate impact on the lives of our patients and families-but it may offer tax benefits, too.
Your gift may qualify you for unique tax benefits including an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift. You may also avoid paying capital gains tax on the increased value of the stock.
Please contact your tax adviser for information on the specific implications for your situation. For instructions on how to make a gift of stock, contact Suzanne Fortier at (401) 415-4690 or click below.
Making a Gift through Retirement Assets
Your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), or other Qualified Retirement Plan can provide a tax-smart way to make an impact on HopeHealth either now or after the end of your lifetime.
The Qualified Charitable Distribution or QCD (sometimes called an “IRA Charitable Rollover”) is a great way to make a tax-free gift now to HopeHealth and satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution too.
Making a Gift through a Donor Advised Fund
The Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a popular way to make a charitable gift and can provide immediate tax benefits while making your charitable giving easier.
Make a gift now by recommending a grant to HopeHealth; or create a succession plan to recommend that HopeHealth receive all or a portion of the fund value upon the termination of the fund.
