The Hospice Care Network is a not-for-profit organization that offers care for terminal patients and families in Suffolk County and Nassau County. The organization focuses on what is best for patients and provides care and comfort for those who are terminally ill. The organization has been up and running since 1988 and continues to expand its services to local communities. The New York Islanders promoted Hospice Care Network at a game and raised $3,000 for programs and services. My mother works for a health clinic for the local hospital where information is posted weekly to inform the community about what is going on and how they can help those in need. This was one of the organizations that reached out to the local communities near my neighborhood for help with fundraising.
