Hospice Volunteers of Hancock County

Thank you Stanley Subaru!

At Stanley Subaru, supporting our community is at the heart of everything we do.

Earlier this week, we were proud to present a donation to Hospice Volunteers of Hancock County as part of our Round Up for Change program. Thanks to the generosity of our amazing customers who chose to round up during their visits, we were able to help support the compassionate care and services Hospice provides to individuals and families throughout our community.

Hospice Volunteers of Hancock County plays an incredibly important role in offering comfort, dignity, and support during life’s most challenging moments, and we are honored to contribute to their mission.

Thank you to everyone who participated in Round Up for Change throughout March. We couldn't have done it without you, and each of you helped make this donation possible. Together, we are making a meaningful difference right here at home.

Patty says, "The novel is an epistolary, which means it is all written in letters of correspondence. This style makes the novel extremely readable and actually with all the short entries it makes you want to keep reading."

The theme is grief and so much more. It has wonderfully developed characters that will certainly spark some conversations.

Patty looks forward to discussing what parts of the story got your interest and what parts touched your heart. Register at hospiceofhancock.org

This is no April fools joke! Did you know medical equipment has been donated by individuals in the community who no longer have a need and want to help others!?

Yes! If you or someone you know is in need, equipment can be borrowed for as long as needed—and even shared with others. When it’s no longer needed, simply return it so we can continue helping others.

Available items may include:
• Wheelchairs & transport chairs
• Walkers, canes & crutches
• Commodes & toilet safety equipment
• Shower chairs & bed tables
• Hoyer lifts (with all parts & slings)
• Gait belts & reacher tools
