The equipment lending program at Beth Donovan Hospice is available to all in our community who have a need. It is a program we are quite proud of and is often the first interaction we have with a family. Whether it be for a short period while recovering from a surgery or a longer period to assist in mobility and care, we serve all who have need in our community.
Last year Beth Donovan Hospice was able to lend over 600 pieces of medical equipment to the community for free. This included transfer wheelchairs, commodes, walkers, canes, bed rails and crutches. To continue to meet demand and keep our equipment in in functioning order, we need some assistance.
Your donation of $10/ month will help cover the cost to continue to run this program by helping with the cost to clean and disinfect, repair, replace and purchase new equipment.
Why are we asking for a monthly donation?
As a non-profit, much of our funding comes from grants and fundraising. Grant funding can be here one day and gone the next, and fundraising events don't provide a guarantee, and are often seasonal. By growing our monthly donations, we can count on a steady source of income to insure we can keep the program running.
When Community Members sign up for monthly donations, they show their commitment to supporting our programs. That means less staff time and volunteer time is spent on asking for donations, and more time spent on serving our community.
We know times are tough and many households are experiencing financial strain. Contributions that are spread out in monthly increments facilitates better cash flow for our donors.
