Illuminations

September 20, 2018  |  6 to 8 p.m.  |  The Pinery at the Hill  

More than 160 people (including Mayor John Suthers and his wife Janet) enjoyed a strolling soirée offering delicious food stations, a live auction of "Bucket List" experiences to bid on, a "Raise the Bucket" (paddle) fundraiser as well as the presentation of the inaugural Quality of Life Award to El Pomar Foundation.  Emcee for the evening featured Betty Sexton, retired Anchor and Investigative Reporter for KKTV 11 News and auctioneer Kevin Patterson of the Patterson Group, LLC.  Proceeds from this new signature event will directly benefit our Pediatric Pathways program.  One of the myths about hospice care is that it is only for the elderly.  In fact, we care for people of all ages.  It is our experience that children and their families need unique support during their end-of-life journey.  In 2017 we served 25 children and their families who required services and support of Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care.  In 2018 we have focused fundraising efforts to support even more children and families needing our care.

Thank you to our Signature Event Sponsors 

 

 

 

 

What Our Families Say

On behalf of my family I would like to thank you and the staff of Pikes Peak Hospice for your care and
concern for my father and for his family during his stay with you. I would recommend your
organization without hesitation to anyone who might be in need of your services. 

I want to commend all of the professionals that helped my family and my husband.  
You were all so kind and caring to all of us during the hardest time of our lives. You all are angels!  Thank you.

Please applaud the Red Team for caring for my husband and teaching me to care for him. 
You made his last week as comfortable and as pain free as possible and
you cared for me when he passed.  Thank you.
