South Haven Luminary Fundraiser for Corewell Health Hospice & Palliative Care

Personalized luminaries may be purchased for $5 now through Nov. 20 at 3 p.m.

SOUTH HAVEN, Mich., November 10, 2023 – Community members are invited to support Corewell Health Hospice & Palliative Care, formerly Caring Circle, by purchasing a luminary now through Monday, Nov. 20, at 3 p.m. Donors may choose to personalize each luminary with the name of a person they wish to honor. Proceeds from the luminary sale will help provide hospice care for patients in need of financial support.

“We are committed to providing care, regardless of a patient’s ability to pay,” said Dan Wassenhove, senior director of Corewell Health Hospice and Palliative Care. “It is our hope that the streets of South Haven will glow from the luminaries, each representing loved ones from our community and alleviating the cost of care for patients and their families.”

The luminary lighting ceremony is set to take place on Nov. 24 at 5:30 p.m. during South Haven’s Holiday in the Park event, at Dyckman Park, 546 Phoenix St.

Corewell Health Hospice & Palliative Care represents a range of programs that provide services to people living with a serious illness and their caregivers, as well as individuals facing death due to illness, anticipating the death of a loved one, or healing their grief after the death of a loved one.

To purchase a luminary, visit www.caring-circle.org/luminaries, any Corewell Health Hospice & Palliative Care office, or the South Haven Visitors Bureau.
