Women Swimmin' for Hospicare is a community event that raises money for Hospicare & Palliative Care Services.

Dear friends,

On Saturday August 12, I'll be swimming across Cayuga Lake, a finger lake located in upstate New York, as a participant in this year's Go the Distance & Women Swimmin' for Hospicare  in an effort to raise funds for Hospicare which provides compassionate end-of-life care. I'm proud to be involved in this special community event and grateful to be able to participate. 

We're SWIMMING & GOING THE DISTANCE to raise funds that help Hospicare to:

- Provide vital medications to ease pain and manage symptoms 

- Provide specialized medical equipment so patients can stay in their own homes

- Train more volunteers to deliver complementary therapies to enhance comfort and peace

- Offer grief counseling sessions

- Continue to provide intensive round-the-clock care at the Hospicare residence for patients who need more care than they can receive in their own homes.

If you can, please join me in supporting their work by making a donation on my fundraising page - you’ll find a link below. I hope you'll consider making a gift. 

Wishing you good health and happiness,


C Ballantyne
