Sweet Charity Hospice Fund Newsletter November 2007
World Hospice Day Events 2007
Sweet Charity experienced the most successful week of fundraising and awareness to date. The final balance filled the Charity account with more than 10.000 € as a result of 5 major events. These monies will help secure the services of the Angel Nursing network of another 6 months.
The amount of terminal illness in our community is overwhelming. The need for our Hospice Home Care Service is obvious. Our nurses and carers are presently assisting 12 families throughout the community. We are presently covering Pilar de la Horradada in the south to La Marina in the north. We also attend families inland as far as Albatera right down to the coast.
Without the help of our fundraising efforts this service would not be possible. Sweet Charity would like to thank all those wonderful people who were organisers, artists, and the attending public that made our fundraising week so successful, You have helped to secure our future. Thank You!
