Be an Angel Appeal

Remembering Our Angels …
“Life is full of moments that only you and your angels share”

 

The Be An Angel Appeal supports vital Coastal Hospice programs that go beyond what Medicare and insurance provide. Your gift helps offset room and board costs at the Macky & Pam Stansell House and Coastal Hospice at the Lake and sustains our year-long Bereavement Program for grieving families.

While medical care is covered, many of our patients with limited means face needs insurance won’t fund. The Be An Angel Appeal helps ensure no one is turned away from the care they deserve.

Each year between Thanksgiving and New Year’s, Coastal Hospice invites our Lower Shore neighbors to be “angels” by including us in their holiday giving. During this time, angel ornaments, each personalized with the name of someone a donor wishes to honor or remember are displayed on Christmas trees throughout the four Lower Eastern Shore communities we serve.

Your support brings comfort, dignity, and hope when it’s needed most. Thank you for being an angel.

In 2024, Coastal Hospice cared for 1,278 patients and their families while providing more than $220,000 in charity care for patients in need.

Donations can be made using the donation form found here. Please include the name of your angel, and Coastal Hospice will write it on an ornament to be hung on one of our Angel Trees.

With your support, we’re able to provide compassionate care through Inpatient Hospice, Pediatric Care, Residential Hospice, Home Hospice, and Grief Support, ensuring no one walks this journey alone.

Inpatient Hospice

Your gift provides a full day of expert, compassionate care at Coastal Hospice at the Lake. Inpatient hospice provides around-the-clock care in a specialized setting for patients whose symptoms cannot be managed at home. Our team offers comfort, dignity, and support for both patients and their loved ones during this time.

Pediatric Care

Help us provide support to children with life-limiting conditions and their families. Pediatric hospice allows curative treatments to continue alongside hospice services, ensuring each child receives physical, emotional, and spiritual care guided by their family and medical team. 

Residential Care

Your gift provides a full day of exceptional, compassionate residential care at the Macky & Pam Stansell House. Our facility offers a home-like setting where patients can spend their final weeks or months in comfort and dignity, surrounded by the medical, emotional, and spiritual support they need.

Home Hospice

Make it possible for patients to receive hospice care wherever they call home, whether in a private residence, a skilled nursing facility, or an assisted living community. Our team brings expert, compassionate care directly to the patient’s doorstep. 

Grief Support

Support free grief counseling and resources for patients and families coping with a serious illness or loss. Your gift ensures no one has to navigate their grief journey alone. 

NO MATTER THE AMOUNT…

Your Donation Will Make a Difference!

Thank you for your continued support and generosity! Remembering the Angels in your life helps Coastal Hospice promote dignity and quality of life for patients and families who face life-limiting conditions, regardless of their ability to pay.
