Home Healthcare, Hospice & Community Services (HCS)

Comfort, Care & Support for Southwestern New Hampshire

28 131033

2025 Goals:

HCS is committed to providing quality care in all our programs, and features a continuum of care that integrates Home Health, Palliative and Hospice care. HCS also continues to invest in and reenergize Meals on Wheels, Healthy Starts, Transportation, Wellness Clinics, and Homemaking. Simultaneously, HCS continues to maximize technology to improve care and support employees. Attracting and retaining our workforce and preparing for the future assures our leadership place in the community.

Fundraising Events:

HCS has thrived with close to three decades of annual poinsettia sales. In partnership with Cathedral of the Pines, we hosted our Signature Butterfly Release Event in 2024 over three days and brought the event to multiple facilities where residents could not travel. The HCS board of directors hosted a vibrant and celebratory annual meeting which included a silent auction and keynote by Dr. Kathleen Jordan, president of the Seven Hills Foundation, who spoke about future trends in human services. The Circle of Hope Society includes receptions, and a “Love Our Donors” lunch is planned for February 2025 to include those who have committed planned gifts to the agency. HCS also participates in the National Day of Giving and NH Gives. HCS partners with three United Way organizations, Share the Love Subaru, and a designated grant writer to support the programs and people we serve.

Giving Opportunities:

HCS has Platinum GuideStar/Candid status and welcomes general or targeted donations on many donation platforms including: the HCS website, Facebook, GiveGab and Benevity. Consider sponsoring a Senior’s Meals on Wheels for a week ($25) or for a month ($100) of meals. HCS also encourages donations from spring and winter annual appeals, and the Barbara Duckett Scholarship fund annual appeal for employee continuing education, and the Aylene Wozmak HEAL Program which benefits and enriches Hospice team members. Visit our website and give today at www.hcsservices.org/donate.

Volunteer Opportunities:

There are many ways to volunteer at HCS! We gratefully accept volunteers for Meals on Wheels deliveries, hospice visitation at home and in facilities, bereavement and caregivers support groups, administrative functions, and during special events like the annual Butterfly Release and Poinsettia Sale.
