Can't make the run or want to do more? Here is where the dollars raised go to support
All proceeds will benefit patients and families in Calvert County and our NEW Patient Family Fund.
The Patient Family Fund was created to provide one-time financial help of up to $1,000 to patients and families in crisis. It covers essentials like rent, groceries, utilities, or funeral expenses when no other resource exists. Our clinical teams help lead the program, ensuring needs are vetted and met.
Even as this program is launching, nurses and social workers refer more patients every week. Rising costs of rent, food, and utilities means many families for a loved one simply can’t keep up. And because insurance doesn’t cover these expenses, the gap between what families need and what’s available continues to grow.
We already give our time and hearts to Hospice of the Chesapeake in Calvert. The Patient Family Fund is another way to help our patients and their families—lifting worries no one should carry during life’s most tender moments.
