The Foundation for Hospice of Central Ohio is marking the 29th year of Light Up a Life this month.

Members of the community are invited to join in supporting the hospice mission by making a donation and memorializing a loved one by name on a dove to be displayed on a brightly lit “memorial” tree. The display of trees will be located at Wilson’s Garden Center, 10923 Lambs Lane in Newark, between November 22 and December 24, Monday – Saturday 9 am – 6 pm. For many in the community, the annual event has become a holiday ritual.

As a not-for-profit hospice, Hospice of Central Ohio relies on the support and generosity of individuals and corporations to assure that quality compassionate care is always available to patients and families regardless of access to insurance or ability to pay. With charitable gifts, the Foundation can support essential services that guarantee comfort, dignity, and meaning to people with life-ending illnesses and support to their families. No one is turned away from Hospice of Central Ohio because of financial circumstances.

More information is available by calling 740-788-1503. Donations to Hospice of Central Ohio can also be made online.
