Gifts in Tribute
Coastal Hospice Tribute Gifts
When you support the Coastal Hospice Honorary & Memorial Tributes program you can honor someone close to you or memorialize the life of a loved one while helping others in need. You can donate in many ways and designate your gift for “general need” or to an existing restricted fund.
When your gift is received, we will send a letter of acknowledgement to you from Coastal Hospice. Should you request, a letter will also be sent to the family of the loved one (without mention of the amount.) Please be sure to provide the name and address of the person you wish to receive the letter. All donors will be included in our newsletter with the name of the person they honored or memorialized (unless you request to remain anonymous).

Memorial Gifts
Keep the memory of your loved one alive while making a lasting difference in our community. Upon your request, we will send a card acknowledging your gift to the family or friend of the deceased. If making your memorial gift by check, please note the name of the person being memorialized in the memo line and include a note with the family member’s name and address so we may notify them of your thoughtful donation.
Honorary Gifts
A tribute gift is a meaningful way to show your appreciation for someone while helping others in need. Whether you’re marking a special occasion or expressing thanks to a cherished friend, you can establish a fund that others may contribute to in their honor. We will send a card to the honoree, acknowledging your gift without mentioning the amount. If making your honorary gift by check, please note the name of the person being honored in the memo line and include a note with the honorees address so we may notify them of your thoughtful donation.
Honor a Caregiver
Did a caregiver, social worker, chaplain, therapist, or volunteer provide exceptional care for your loved one? You can express your gratitude—and help others receive that same compassion—by making a gift in their name. We will ensure the person or team is notified of your thoughtful tribute. If making your honorary gift by check, please note the name of the person or team being honored in the memo line. We will notify them that a donation has been made in their honor (excluding the amount given).
Donations in Lieu of Flowers
Thank you for considering Coastal Hospice as the recipient of gifts in memory of your loved one. We appreciate your thoughtfulness, especially during this very difficult time for you and your family.
