Your donation to Community Hospices through Hospice Cup will benefit our Pediatric Care Program for children, from birth to age 21, with life-threatening illnesses.  This program offers children relief from suffering, management of their symptoms and emotional support during the advanced stage of their diseases whether or not a cure is found. 

Our Pediatric Program is one of the many services we provide to children and adults in need of palliative and end-of-life care in their homes or our inpatient facility. 

We provide gentle, compassionate care in: The City of Baltimore and the Maryland counties of Montgomery, Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Cecil, Harford, Howard and Prince George's; the District of Columbia; and the City of Alexandria; Fairfax City; the city of Falls Church; and the counties of Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William in Virginia. 

Hospice Cup XVII, the nation's oldest and largest charity regatta, takes place in Annapolis on September 27, 2008.  For more information, call 202-895-2623. 

Thank you so much for your gift!
