This Giving Tuesday, You Can Give a Gift That Truly Matters and Stays LOCAL.

We believe every person deserves to feel remembered, loved, and valued—especially during the holidays. Many of our local hospice patients have no family nearby, or no one left to share in the warmth of Christmas. Help us change that!

With your support, we’re providing Christmas gifts and special holiday moments for patients who might not otherwise receive anything. Your generosity helps us deliver comfort, joy, and connection when it’s needed most.
✨ How you can help:

• Sponsor a gift for a local hospice patient

• Make a donation to support holiday visits and surprises

• Share this post to spread the word
Your kindness can make a profound difference in someone’s final chapter.

Thank you for helping us bring light, love, and dignity to our patients this Christmas.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Cottonwood Hospice!

💜 Why Choosing Hospice Early Matters 💜

During National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, we want families to know: hospice care isn’t about giving up—it’s about choosing comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

Many families tell us they wish they had started hospice care sooner. By beginning hospice earlier, patients and loved ones gain more time for:
✨ Expert pain and symptom management
✨ Emotional and spiritual support
✨ Time to focus on what truly matters—being together
✨ Help navigating care decisions and resources

Hospice isn’t about days lost—it’s about moments gained. Our team at Cottonwood Hospice is here to guide you with compassion and understanding, every step of the way.

If you’re wondering whether it might be time to talk about hospice, we’re here to answer your questions—no pressure, just support.
