Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care
In January 2023, the WellSky Foundation announced it has gifted $50,000 to Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care, a nonprofit organization dedicated to delivering expert care, comfort, and guidance to individuals and families affected by serious illness or grief.
With funding from the WellSky Foundation, Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care can expand their services such as Solace House, a center for grief and healing designed to be a nurturing place to guide children and adults through the difficult time following a family member’s death. Built to support people aged three to adult, Solace House offers a comprehensive set of services including peer support groups for children, teens, and adults; individual and family grief support, including family grief camps; referrals for crisis counseling; and more.
“At Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care, we are proud to provide patients and their families within our community with support and guidance as they navigate serious illness and grief,” shared Kansas City Hospice President & CEO, David Wiley. “With the WellSky Foundation’s generous gift, we can expand our resources available to families, equipping children and adults with the comprehensive grief and counseling services they need to move forward after loss.”
