Thank you to College of the Sequoias students who took part in Random Acts of Kindness day last week - they decorated and donated food, gifts, gift cards and tickets to our hospital Pediatrics and Mother/Baby departments and to Hospice's Ruth Wood Open Arms House. Just look at these spreads! They went all out and brought smiles to many faces.

We've added up the receipts from the Moonshine Soiree, and wow - the event brought in more than $175,000 for Kaweah Health Hospice and Ruth Wood Open Arms House. We cannot thank the donors and live and silent auction bidders enough for making Moonshine a dream come true.

All proceeds will go toward ensuring local residents get end-of-life care, no matter their financial circumstances. Families and patients will get the support they need - physical, psychological, and spiritual. And no one ever has to die alone.

Kaweah Health Hospice is a not-for-profit hospice that has been providing end of life services in Tulare County and Kings County for over 35 years. They serve both adult and pediatric patients. A team of physicians and registered nurses is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide expert management of pain and other symptoms. With your gift, we can care for all who need help at this special time of life.

You can still donate! Visit https://secure.qgiv.com/for/hospicegeneraldonations/

Last night's Moonshine Soiree was a breathtakingly beautiful evening full of fun, laughter and good times raising funds for Kaweah Health Hospice. Yes, tears were shed hearing the stories of people helped by Hospice, but through the tears we could see the hope and heartfelt care Hospice gives families. Thank you to our sponsors, guests, speakers, Hospice board members, and everyone who helped make this such a memorable event. More photos and details to come!

Foundation staff was positively delighted to show SaveMart's CARES board members and store leadership around the Kaweah Health pediatrics area to learn about the upcoming remodel of the department through Tiny Feet, Big Steps. The CARES Foundation donated $5,000 toward Tiny Feet to help with the project, and will have the Pediatric Nutrition Room named for them. We love how our community has supported this campaign!

We have made great progress on Tiny Feet, and are working on room designs so we can start construction later this year. But there is still time to get involved. You can donate at kaweahhealth.org/bigsteps or call our office (559-624-2359) if you would like information on room naming rights.
