Donating in Memory
He koha whakamahara
Making a gift in memory of someone special is a meaningful way to honour their life while helping others receive the care and support they need. It is a legacy, one that reflects love, compassion, and the values of the person being remembered.
Make a gift in memory
You may wish to make a personal donation in memory of someone who was cared for by Cranford Hospice, or simply to honour their life and legacy.
Whether large or small, every gift helps ensure Hawke’s Bay families can continue to access hospice care, free of charge, when they need it.
Donations can be made at any time and are a meaningful way to remember someone special.
In lieu of flowers
Some families choose to request donations to Cranford Hospice in lieu of flowers as part of a funeral notice or memorial service. This can be a meaningful way for friends and family to honour a loved one while supporting local hospice care.
If you would like to include Cranford Hospice in a funeral notice or arrange a donation box for a service, our team can help. Speak with your funeral director or contact our fundraising team.
In appreciation of care
Many families choose to make a donation in appreciation of the care, comfort and support their loved one received from Cranford Hospice.
These gifts are a powerful way to say thank you and help ensure others can receive the same compassionate care in the future. For many, it is a way of giving back after experiencing first-hand the difference hospice care can make.
