Partners artners in Giving
Central Oregon embodies the ethic of “see a need, fill a need.” And it’s built on a generous spirit of giving. That’s what makes this a special place, where people want to put down roots. Dedicated local people staff and volunteer for an array of nonprofits committed to making life better for all Central Oregonians.

Hospice of Redmond is a Level IV We Honor Veterans partner and has been serving Central Oregon veterans for 45 years. We are also honored to support our local veterans by funding the Veterans Lunch at the Redmond Senior Center on the third Wednesday of every month. Join us at 12 p.m.! Some of the services available to veterans through Hospice of Redmond’s programs include: • Connection to Veteran Service Officers (VSOs) for service-related disabilities • Access to resources in the community • Flag lines at veteran funerals • Flag pinning for hospice patients • Support for family survivors of a patient
They are enabled to do their invaluable work by the generous support of a giving community — you and me. We are the partners of these dedicated outfits that serve children, veterans, seniors, the disabled, and anyone else in need — including our furry friends. Volunteer or donate — and keep the circle unbroken.. Jim Cornelius, Editor in Chief The Nugget Newspaper
