HOSPICE OF VOLUSIA/FLAGLER'S

1ST ANNUAL RUBBER DUCK RACE!

Presenting/Benefiting Organization

All proceeds generated from the Hospice of Volusia/Flagler’s 1st Annual Rubber Duck Race will go to

The Lawrence E. Whelan BeginAgain Children’s Grief Centers.

At the Centers, children and their families have the opportunity to participate in a variety of structured activities and “free time” to help them understand and express their grief over the death of a loved one.  Expressive activities such as art, individual and group play, physical movement, memorial rituals and discussions are encouraged to help the healing process. 

 

Like many of the programs offered by the Hospice of Volusia/Flagler, The Lawrence E. Whelan BeginAgain Children’s Grief Centers are not funded by Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance.  The program runs solely on the generosity and love of the community it serves.  The proceeds from the Rubber Duck Race will make a difference in the lives of many children hurting in our community.
