YOUR GIFT IN ACTION

Patient Care Fund Helps Patients Stay Warm at Home

Robert was living without heat for three days in the middle of a cold winter in New York. His heat was shut off after he was unable to pay his bill. When our MJHS Hospice social worker heard this, she immediately purchased him a space heater through our MJHS Patient Care Fund. After the heater was delivered to his apartment the next day, Robert was finally able to rest comfortably in his home.

Supported solely by MJHS donors like you, the MJHS Patient Care Fund is available for patients who are facing an emergency or items related to their diagnosis that they could not otherwise afford to purchase.
