It truly takes a community to help a hospice provide services. Throughout the year, Hospice of Medina County, The Robertson Bereavement Center, and Hospice of Medina County at The Inn host fundraisers to make it possible to offer hospice and bereavement services to everyone in need. These are the three main fundraisers: ♦ LifeFest Dinner and Auction - Hosted in April, this lovely dinner and auction provides an exciting evening of friendship, fine dining, and a frenzy of bidding on both silent and live auction items. ♦ Annual Golf Outing - Golfers come running every year for this great golf outing. The outing includes lunch, 18 holes of golf, dinner, and door prizes. ♦ The Light Up A Life" Program - There are several pieces of this holiday program that is focused around the holidays. First, the program begins with a musical performance and candle light ceremony during Medina's Candle Light Walk. Then, approximately ten holiday trees are illuminated throughout the season in locations across our service area. Finally, for five weeks before Christmas, volunteers, employees, service organizations, and businesses staff holiday trees as SouthPark Mall in Strongsville and help shoppers write messages in memory or in honor of loved ones. Donations are appreciated. Over the years, many fundraisers have come from community members and organizations. The wide scope of different fundraisers reflects the diversity of our community - high school class reunions that host auctions, a Night at the Races, all night dance-a-thons, fashion shows, 24-hour running marathons, a monetary donation at weddings instead of the traditional favors - the list goes on and on.
