Friends of Hospice is a non-profit membership-based organization in Central Oregon. Members believe in the value of hospice care at the end of life and want to live fully until that time comes. All activities sponsored by Friends of Hospice align with four areas of focus: TALK, PLAN, LEARN, and LIVE! We want to TALK about end-of-life issues in order to gain clarity and make our wishes known to others. We want to PLAN now to be prepared for an uncertain future. We want to LEARN about the dying process and how to navigate the complexities of healthcare. We seek to LIVE life fully—making choices that enrich our lives. Anyone can join with an annual household membership of just $25 a year.
