This year has seen unprecedented challenges in every community. The health care community and the non-profit community each face tremendous demands, logistically and financially. Connecticut Hospice sits at the intersection of both communities, and we are consequently facing a year like no other.
We are grateful, therefore, to be among many Greater New Haven non-profit organizations who participate in The Great Give each year.
Entering its 11th year, The Great Give is an annual two-day online-giving event designed to support nonprofits throughout Greater New Haven County.
Due to COVID-19, the original 36-hour time frame of May 5th @ 8am through May 6th @ 8pm has been expanded: early giving is now open and giving will close on May 31st.

This year Connecticut Hospice has the following opportunities to increase the total amount of $$$$ raised:
Earn matching contributions from a $30,000 Griswold Home Care pool set aside for organizations that serve our elder community. Based on the number of unique donors Connecticut Hospice collects compared to just 11 other qualified organizations, a pro-rated amount will be awarded.
The Branford Community Foundation will award two prizes of $500 to Branford based organizations that receive donations from at least 30 unique donors prior to May 6th @ 8pm.
