We did it! 💛 Thanks to you, we’ve reached our $100,000 goal for Monterey County Gives! Your support helps our healthcare heroes continue providing compassionate care to families across our community.

And every additional dollar helps extend that care even further; supporting another healthcare professional, another moment of comfort, another life touched.

This is more than a goal; it’s a reminder of what’s possible when we come together.

Celebrating a true pillar of our Hospice Giving Foundation family. 💙

Please join us in honoring Bill Tebbe — Board Director since January 2014, Board Chair from 2017–2019, and named Board Emeritus in 2020 — for being recognized at the AFP Monterey Bay's National Philanthropy Day Luncheon, nominated by Hospice Giving Foundation, in recognition of his extraordinary philanthropic leadership in Monterey County.

Bill’s compassion, steady guidance, and unwavering belief in hospice and end-of-life support have shaped our mission in profound, lasting ways. He leads with heart, shows up with integrity, and embodies what it means to serve a community with purpose.

We are endlessly grateful for you, Bill. Thank you for your decade of service, generosity, and love for the people of Monterey County. 🌟💛

Here’s to you — and to the countless lives you’ve uplifted.

Hospice Giving Foundation’s Big Idea is simple: To care for the doctors, nurses, and caregivers who give so much of themselves to care for us. Too often, they carry the weight of compassion fatigue, grief, and burnout —quietly, and at great personal cost.

With your support through Monterey County Gives!, we can expand programs that ease caregiver stress, strengthen wellness and bereavement services, and ensure those who comfort others never have to shoulder the burden alone.

When you give, you uplift the very people who stand with us in our most tender moments.

Because caring for them is caring for all of us.

Our Story

Hospice Giving Foundation is an independent grant-making foundation exclusively focused on end-of-life care and preparedness. Unaffiliated with a direct patient care provider, Hospice Giving Foundation is the primary funder of a spectrum of qualified nonprofit agencies that deliver compassionate end-of-life care in Monterey and San Benito Counties. Since 1997, Hospice Giving Foundation has awarded grants totaling almost $25 million.

Through our community education, professional education, and end-of-life resources, Hospice Giving Foundation provides a platform for the conversation about death and dying to increase people’s understanding, acceptance, and preparedness. Understanding that each of us may find some approaches more accessible than others, Hospice Giving Foundation’s outreach programming employs varied methods, including workshops, talks, dinner conversations, online tools, and creative media. HG Foundation serves the community by investing in service providers and relevant community education to ensure needed services are available throughout our community; for all in our community.

Hospice Giving Foundation’s singular focus gives our communities a unique and valuable resource. Through our philanthropy programs we strive for highest donor satisfaction and are careful stewards of donor funds. Under the leadership and fiduciary guidance of our Board of Directors, HG Foundation is sustained by strategic investments, carefully disbursement of funds, and by being responsive to the changing healthcare landscape.
