​What We Do, Where and When?

​
The revenue from our resale shop and warehouse, fundraising events, and direct donations is utilized to fund grants for nonprofit hospice and palliative care services, grief support programs, and end-of-life education initiatives in Lane County. These programs are distinctive in our community and enhance the quality of life for hospice patients, grieving families, and individuals facing end-of-life challenges. We also provide scholarships to Lane County students pursuing careers in fields related to hospice, palliative care, grief counseling, and end-of-life education, with the ultimate goal of assisting individuals navigating significant life transitions.
We offer refurbished, high-quality medical equipment for those pursuing economical solutions. Our shop and warehouse carry an extensive medical inventory. What makes us distinct is our volunteers' dedication to truly assisting others. We're aware of the difficulties and emotional burden you may be encountering, and we interact with compassion and understanding. Our aim is to be a supportive companion, rather than merely a vendor.

PeaceHealth Palliative Care provides specialized medical care for people with serious illness. Our care focuses on relieving the symptoms and stress of a serious illness. The goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family. Palliative care is provided by a specially trained team that works together with a patient’s other doctors to provide an extra layer of support. It is appropriate at any age and at any stage in a serious illness, and it can be provided along with treatments aimed at curing an illness or condition.
