SUMMARY:Fairfield County Hospice House Flight of Life Event
DESCRIPTION:Fairfield County Hospice House (FCHH) will host its second annual Flight of Life Memorial Ceremony on Sunday\, November 13th\, 11am at the site of the new home\, One Den Road in Stamford. The Ceremony will honor loved ones who have passed away and raise funds to support completion of the Hospice House through purchase of butterflies that will be assembled on a live Birch tree at the ceremony. \nFairfield County Hospice House is a six-bedroom home intended to serve as a home away from home for patients at the end of life who cannot remain in their own homes. This is the first residential house dedicated to Hospice in Connecticut and is expected to serve hundreds of families annually. All rooms are single occupancy with individual baths and private outdoor spaces overlooking beautiful landscaping. The house is expected to open in early 2017 and will serve all communities in lower Fairfield County. \n“Some families are fortunate to be able to help a parent or other family member spend their final weeks at home\,” says Richard Redniss\, co-chair of the Fairfield County Hospice House Board of Directors. “But for financial or other reasons\, that is not always an option. This house will support people and families at the end of life by providing a home-like setting for those who are unable to stay at home for whatever reason. The Flight of Life event is a way to bring people together to celebrate and remember loved ones while helping to support completion of the house.” \nFor more information about Fairfield County Hospice House\, the Flight of Life event or to purchase butterflies to be displayed at the event\, please visit http://www.fchospicehouse.org/events or call Development Director Colleen Harkey at 203-323-1412. \nFairfield County Hospice House (FCHH) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2012 to build a free-standing hospice house for people on hospice who are not able to stay in their own homes. Its mission is to provide a home for people at the end of life that offers the highest quality of care and life experience. \n
