2 fundraisers to support the Dr. Bob Kemp Hospice

First Published:

For 30 years the Dr. Bob Kemp Hospice has been providing supporting palliative care and bereavement needs in the greater Hamilton area. In order to do so, fundraising has been incredibly important.

Danielle Zucchet, the CEO of the hospice, joined us this morning to talk about the services the hospice provides and to promote a couple of upcoming fundraising events in partnership with the FirstOntario Credit Union.

The first is an open skate coming up this Sunday and the second is a benefit concert being held on March 24th.

There is also a 50/50 draw.

All of these events directly support their programs such as grief groups offered at no cost to children, teens, and adults.
