  LIGHT UP A LIFE
The holidays are a special time each year of reflection, memory and appreciation for those whose lives or deeds have touched ours. The Hospice of Lubbock Annual Light Up A Life Fundraiser each December, offers the people of the 19 counties and communities we serve an opportunity to remember, honor or celebrate the lives and events of those we love. Throughout the month, individuals and supporters can make a donation toward the purchase of a symbolic light on the Hospice Tree of Lights to memorialize, honor or celebrate one of these special people or events. This year, 2009, Hospice of Lubbock once again invites the community to gather round the new Hospice Tree of Lights. A beautiful tree of hospice blue lights is now "on the ground" at the corner of 19th & University (StayBridge Suites corner) for all to see and enjoy the brilliance of the lights representing the lives of those we love and honor. As this fundraising event generates more and more light purchases, this beautiful tree of blue lights will get closer and closer to our fundraising goal of $60,000. Once the goal is reached, the ornament atop the tree will be illuminated for all to see that this generous community has once again furthered the Hospice of Lubbock mission to serve children and adults facing terminal illness. For a $10 donation a light will be lit in memory or honor of your loved one or event. For a $25 donation, a light will be lit for your loved one or event AND a Christmas acknowledgment card will be sent to the person/persons you designate. All donations will be acknowledged in the next Hospice of Lubbock newsletter, "The Sign of the Dove". All gifts are tax deductible and will receive a receipt letter for tax purposes. This is a lovely gift at Christmas time and serves the dual purpose of memorializing/honoring someone special AND helping Hospice of Lubbock to fulfill its promise to the community to provide hospice care to everyone in need, regardless of ability to pay.
