This holiday season consider a memorable way to acknowledge how much you care about those who are dear to you. Skip the mall traffic and purchase an honorarium to the Priceless Wishes program in honor of your friends, family members and co-workers. Not only will your loved ones receive a thoughtful card, they’ll also know that their gift is helping fulfill the last wish of someone who terminally ill.
With a minimum donation of just $10, you can purchase a card, and the Baptist Foundation will notify the recipient that you made a contribution to Priceless Wishes in his or her honor. If you provide an address, the Foundation will send a card to a single recipient for a minimum donation of $10, or you can purchase blank cards and personalize them yourself.
Your donations will help the Foundation grant a hospice patient’s last request. The Baptist Trinity Hospice team of nurses, social workers, chaplains and volunteers work closely with each patient and family member, truly getting to know each of them. They find out what’s special to them and help uncover their priceless wish. Then, they help the patient’s loved ones make arrangements to make that priceless wish come true. Sometimes it’s the little things that are often priceless.
