Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

Today, we celebrate 250 years of our nation's history and the freedoms that unite us. As we gather with family and friends, we also remember those who have served, sacrificed, and helped shape the country we call home.

If you feel so inclined, we invite you to take part in Giving 4th—a new national day of charitable giving. If you're looking for a meaningful way to celebrate the holiday, consider supporting Delaware Hospice and the compassionate care we provide by visiting: https://delawarehospice.org/give/

From all of us at Delaware Hospice, we wish you a safe and joyful Independence Day weekend.

Summer is a great season for making memories. With a little preparation, you can help your loved one enjoy it safely and comfortably, even inside!
