Support Mountain Valley Hospice & Palliative Care
Through Philanthropy
The Woltz Home and SECU Hospice Care Center serve as a “home away from home” for our hospice patients and their families.  The SMBA office has a list of items that they are trying to secure to provide the best possible care and support their staff.  These needs range in price from quite expensive to very inexpensive.  A few of the least expensive are:
* large print Bibles           *fidget Aprons       *baby monitors     *hairbrushes         
*sample size toiletries   *cookie mixes        *calling cards for long distance calling
*toothbrushes       *serving platters                          *socks & gripper socks (adult sizes)
*DVDs for theater room             *potting soil, plant food, seasonal plants, bird feed
 
Also, volunteering your time can change your life and the lives of others.  Volunteering one time a week for two hours for one year provides a cost savings of $2,700.  Whether it’s a smile, companionship, reading or using your talents to ease the weight of a day for others, your time is greatly appreciated
