Las emergencias médicas llegan en los momentos menos esperados y las decisiones – en algunos casos – deben tomarse de inmediato, pero ¿qué pasa cuando el paciente no puede tomar decisiones por sí mismo? Sin una Directiva Avanzada de la Salud Médica (AHCD por sus siglas en inglés) o un POLST, el equipo médico tomará las decisiones por ti.

Acompáñanos a esta presentación gratuita en español en la que aprenderás acerca de la importancia de poner por escrito tus deseos de cuidados de salud para cuando llegues a la vejez o al final de la vida. Este puede ser un regalo de vida para tus seres queridos, para que así comprendan mejor lo que es importante para ti y puedan honrar tus deseos.

¡Te esperamos!

When Darlene, a lifelong community advocate and loving mother, was facing the final chapter of her life, Jerry’s Place became a sanctuary of compassion, dignity, and peace. Thanks to your support and a grant from Hospice Giving Foundation, Jerry’s Place was able to care for Darlene and guide her family through an incredibly difficult time.

Her daughter, Shannon, shared: "In her final days, my mother sought to ease my broken heart. Her passing, though heartbreaking, was peaceful, thanks to the care and dignity afforded to her by [Jerry's Place's] dedicated staff."

This is the power of end-of-life care done right.

This is the impact of giving.

Our Story

Hospice Giving Foundation is an independent grant-making foundation exclusively focused on end-of-life care and preparedness. Unaffiliated with a direct patient care provider, Hospice Giving Foundation is the primary funder of a spectrum of qualified nonprofit agencies that deliver compassionate end-of-life care in Monterey and San Benito Counties. Since 1997, Hospice Giving Foundation has awarded grants totaling almost $25 million.

Through our community education, professional education, and end-of-life resources, Hospice Giving Foundation provides a platform for the conversation about death and dying to increase people’s understanding, acceptance, and preparedness. Understanding that each of us may find some approaches more accessible than others, Hospice Giving Foundation’s outreach programming employs varied methods, including workshops, talks, dinner conversations, online tools, and creative media. HG Foundation serves the community by investing in service providers and relevant community education to ensure needed services are available throughout our community; for all in our community.

Hospice Giving Foundation’s singular focus gives our communities a unique and valuable resource. Through our philanthropy programs we strive for highest donor satisfaction and are careful stewards of donor funds. Under the leadership and fiduciary guidance of our Board of Directors, HG Foundation is sustained by strategic investments, carefully disbursement of funds, and by being responsive to the changing healthcare landscape.
