FAIRHOPE Hospice & Palliative Care Hosting Annual Celebrate Life Event Thursday, May 1
LANCASTER, Ohio (April 15, 2025) — FAIRHOPE Hospice & Palliative Care will host its annual FAIRHOPE Celebrates Life event from 5:30-8:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 1 at The Mill Event Center in Lancaster, Ohio.
This community event includes a live auction and awards ceremony for distinguished individuals that have been vital to the FAIRHOPE mission. An online auction will launch Tuesday, April 29 at 8 a.m., and attendees are encouraged to explore and bid on these exclusive items donated by area businesses.
In recognition of the lives touched by FAIRHOPE, all donations from the event will support the Memorial Fund to provide services for patients requiring end-of-life care that would otherwise not be able to financially invest in this care. FAIRHOPE does not turn away anyone for their inability to pay; rather, they honor each life with love and dignity through comprehensive hospice and palliative care services.
“FAIRHOPE Celebrates Life is really a tremendous community gathering,” said Kristin Glasure, President and CEO of FAIRHOPE. “We’re always in awe of the outpouring of support from business owners, community leaders, family, friends, and neighbors. It’s neat to see the magnitude of FAIRHOPE’s influence and how it continues to grow.”
