Pathways Hospice, a community nonprofit providing expert medical and comfort care for individuals navigating the last months of life, has received a grant for $10,000 from the Virginia W. Hill Foundation. The funds will go toward general operating support, with a portion of the funds serving specifically to improve access to quality healthcare for those with limited financial means.
“We are so grateful to the Virginia W. Hill Foundation for this meaningful gift,” said Pathways Hospice CEO, Evan Hyatt. “It allows us to continue supporting patients who need hospice care but might not be in the position to pay for it.”
The Virginia W. Hill Foundation was established by the late Virginia Hill, a notable Denver philanthropist. Mrs. Hill was known in her lifetime for her charitable giving to better the lives of people living in the American West. She was, for example, a major donor to the restoration of Ft. Laramie in the early 1960’s. In recent years, Mrs. Hill’s Foundation has contributed significantly to improving the health of those living in Colorado communities.
