How Your Donation Helps
Reimbursements from Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance cover about 85% of the cost for our patients and families.
YOUR donation helps fill the remaining gap – ensuring that no patient is turned away because of an inability to pay. Only donations to Gulfside Hospice make this possible and all donations are used right here in Pasco County. Your donation helps provide:
Medical Equipment
Nursing Care
Counseling Services
Spiritual Support
Bereavement
Memorial Gifts
Honor the life of your loved one with a gift that helps provide hospice care and bereavement services to the patients and families who need us today.
Butterfly Garden Gifts
A place where the flutter of butterfly wings bring peace, the Butterfly Gardens located in New Port Richey and Zephyrhills provide friends and loved ones a tranquil setting for serenity and reflection. Honor and remember loved ones with personalized pavers and benches engraved with your personal message.
Wall of Caring Gifts
Leave a lasting tribute for your loved one on a Gulfside Wall of Caring at the location of your choice. Each Wall of Caring plaque includes a personalized inscription of your choice (up to two lines of wording). Prices start at $500.
Women for Gulfside
Make a yearly membership gift of $125 or more and join others to create a larger impact together. Women for Gulfside members meet bi-monthly and fundraise to support an annual project of their choice to help patients and their families.
Hospice Heroes
Thank a special Gulfside Hospice caregiver or team by naming them as a Hospice Hero with your donation of any size.
All Hospice Heroes are recognized with a special dove pin and commemorative certificate hand-signed by Gulfside President and CEO, Linda L. Ward.

Your gift helps empower those in our community who are grieving to adjust to their loss, confront their pain and rebuild their lives. These life-changing services are provided at no cost, thanks to the generosity of donors.
