Specialty, End of Life Support

The Senior and Dorinda’s Dream Funds 

Ongoing

The Dorinda's Dream Fund and the Senior Dream Fund were established to provide financial support for end of life wishes of adults diagnosed with a terminal illness who are under hospice care. The Dorinda's Dream fund supports patients who are between the ages of 18-65; the Senior Dreams Fund supports patients over the age of 65. These funds primarily support partial or full airline ticket costs of a loved one or an applicant/patient to make a final connection before the passing of said patient; however, applications for a meaningful activity for the patient may also be submitted.
