Help Your Community by supporting Small Comforts:

Building and sustaining a program takes resources of many types on an ongoing basis.  Browse the list below and then consider supporting this important community resource.  The person you help may be a friend, colleague, neighbor, or family member.  Whoever you help will be someone who benefits from your concern. Small Comforts supports people with chronic illness in a variety of settings including Hospicecare of Tompkins County.  It utilizes cash donations for small items which assist those with chronic illness to obtain items which make life more comfortable or easily managed.  Your tax-deductible donation is very much appreciated.

Equally important as material support is the donation of your time and talent.  Hospital staff are burdened with the duties of care and there is need for volunteers to assist people with choosing videos, turning on the unit, moving the portable units to and from areas.  The service has significant value and the interaction with patients is rewarding for volunteers and patients alike.  Consider volunteering at the hospital.

Whatever your interests, there are ways you can assist.  Drop a line with your ideas of how you can help people with chronic illness pass the long hours of hospital time. Please add your suggestions or ideas below.
