Honor their memory with a charitable gift.

Hospice of Michigan's mission is to ensure quality of life and a comfortable, peaceful death for all patients receiving our care, and provide support for their loved ones. We will serve everyone in our communities who needs and seeks our care and strive to improve the state of end-of-life care.

The Community Hospice is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, accredited by the Community Health Accreditation Program. We are part of St. Peter's Health Partners, and are privileged to work with every hospital in the region to provide hospice services. We serve more than 4,300 seriously ill patients and their families a year. The elderly, terminally ill and dying are among the most vulnerable people in our society. Incredible advances in medical care and social services haven’t ended the tragedy of people dying alone or in pain. Meeting that need is our mission: The Community Hospice serves seriously ill people and their families during the process of dying and grieving. We enhance quality of life with comprehensive, compassionate services that respect the dignity of those we serve. And we offer that help and comfort in eight counties in upstate New York: Albany, Schenectady, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Columbia, Greene, Montgomery and Washington.

We're on a mission to improve quality of life for children, families and communities.

For more than 20 years, the Clinton Foundation has transformed philanthropy — running programs that develop leaders and accelerate solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. Under the leadership of President Clinton, Secretary Clinton, and Chelsea Clinton, our unique approach prioritizes solutions over ideology — bringing people together in the spirit of collaboration and pragmatic problem-solving for a brighter future. Programs founded by the Clinton Foundation since its inception reflect our shared commitment to “putting people first” — the practice of focusing on how a proposed policy, program, or partnership can directly affect a person’s life and make a lasting impact.

From the website: "American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities (ALSAC) was founded by Danny Thomas in 1957 to be the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and its sole mission is to raise the funds and awareness necessary to operate and maintain the hospital. In the years ahead, an estimated 89% of the funds necessary to sustain and grow St. Jude must be raised by ALSAC from generous donors."
