Hospice Fundraiser Baseball Game Raises Funds and Receives Community Support

Grand Lake Hospice is pleased to announce the success of the Minster Baseball Hospice Night, a charity baseball game held on Friday, May 10th.  The baseball game, against the Ft. Loramie Redskins, raised funds to support the services provided by Grand Lake Hospice to the surrounding communities.

Through the generous contributions of attendees, sponsors, and volunteers, the hospice fundraiser was again successful in their efforts. These funds will be used to enhance the comfort and quality of life for terminally ill patients, provide specialized medical care, and offer emotional support to patients and their families during the most challenging times.

“I watched the role Hospice played and felt this is my way of helping give back in Dad's memory.  Many other baseball families in Minster have benefitted from Hospice care over the past several years and we make mention of their names on this night,” states Minster Baseball Coach Mike Wiss.

"We are incredibly grateful to Coach Wiss and the Minster JV and Varsity teams, for their continued support through what has become an annual event,” said Julie Jacobs, Executive Director of the JTD Hospital Foundation. "The overwhelming support from our community reaffirms the importance of the work that Grand Lake Hospice does and the impact we have on individuals and families facing end-of-life challenges.  The support of the Minster Baseball team and their “Minster Baseball Hospice Night” is greatly appreciated.”

The event would not have been possible without the support of the generous Minster and other local businesses and individual sponsors, Minster Baseball Parents and numerous community volunteers.  Their commitment to our cause exemplifies their strong sense of community and compassion. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to those who dedicated their time and energy to this fun and exciting night of high school baseball.

Grand Lake Hospice would like to extend our deepest appreciation to everyone who participated in and supported the hospice fundraiser baseball game. Together, we have made a profound difference in the lives of those facing end-of-life challenges, and we remain committed to providing compassionate care and support to our community.
