HOSPICE GIVING FOUNDATION
ANNUAL REPORT 2015
Message from the Board Chair
When I joined Hospice Giving Foundation’s board in 2011, I knew I had a personal reason and connection. My late
husband Bob received wonderful care from hospice. I hoped by joining this board I would be able to contribute in
ways that helped such services flourish in our community. Over these years, this Foundation has proved to be more
than I could have imagined. It is such an honor to now be serving the first year of my two-year term as Board Chair.
The board is composed of intelligent and dedicated members who come together for all the right reasons in support
of our mission. This past year, the Foundation hosted wonderful events, supported innovative approaches to end-oflife care, and had thoughtful conversations about how to strategically advance our mission.
Board Chair Nanci Markey and President & CEO Siobhan Greene.
Last spring, I served as chair of the Grants committee and met with each agency requesting funding. During those
visits I learned more about the scope of services for patients and families facing end of life. I saw firsthand the
inspiring degree of professionalism and dedication of these agencies in serving the people of our community. With
gratitude for the involvement of our board and staff and with deep respect for the agencies working to serve our
community, I ask you to continue with us on our journey to help support dignified and compassionate end-of-life
services in our community.
Message from the President and CEO
If you have ever made a big change in your life, you know the excitement and anticipation that come at the beginning. You wonder what will
transpire, how it will all go, and even if you’ll ever really feel at home. When I came to Hospice Giving Foundation in 2013, I was very excited, but
knew I had a lot to learn and understand. I knew this work had an important place in my heart, yet I know, as with any new job, only time would tell
if I was the right fit. As we close 2015, I can say with absolute sincerity that I’ve found my place. The people I have met have been inspiring and
enlightening. The loyalty and deep, personal commitment of our donors are striking. Those providing the care are filled with kindness and dedication,
despite the difficulty of the work they do. The team I work with day in and day out are professionals who always act with thought, focus, and warmth.
I have the honor of serving with smart and committed individuals on our Board of Directors. So yes, I feel like I am at home; I feel deeply fulfilled
knowing what good work this Foundation supports.
Board 2015-2016
Hospice Giving Foundation is honored to help our community by awarding grants for a broad scope of end-of-life care. Our gratitude for this privilege
is deep and heartfelt. To our donors, partners, board, and friends, thank you for being a part of the compassion that connects us.

I’m still
honoring my
friend
large number of volunteers have had
experiences in their lives whereby a family
member or someone close to them died,
with or without hospice care. Volunteers
are selfless people. Totally selfless. They
don’t volunteer to get their names on a
letterhead. They’re extraordinary!
You’ve received the Kendall Inspiration
Award. Can you tell me a little bit about it?
It’s given to recognize service in honor of
Betty Kendall’s husband, a former Board
member.
an interview with Beverley Ambort
Beverley Ambort lived all over the world before
coming to Carmel. No matter where she was,
she maintained a commitment to charity. After
caring for a close friend who had cancer, Beverley
decided to focus her commitment on hospice
care. Since that time she has been a volunteer,
fundraiser, board member, and above all, a
caregiver.
When did you first volunteer for hospice?
When my husband and I transferred here
from Europe and retired, I had been in
Florida helping a dear friend, Jane, who
had been diagnosed with cancer. There
was no hospice available, so I went to help
take care of her. After Jane died, I took the
local hospice training course. I thought
they would assign me to the facility in
Carmel Valley. But, the director said we
need you in the Resource Center. I worked
there and also helped Friends of Hospice
raise money, including $250,000 for
Hospice House (now Westland House).
What kind of work do you do and how often
do you volunteer?
The Health Resource Center has been
in different locations and is now part
of Community Hospital. I volunteer two
afternoons a week. We fit clients with wigs,
loan books, and we access information that
helps the public to find the right resources.
It’s a valuable service.
I understand you’ve been a board member?
I have been a volunteer for 28 years. I was
invited to join the Hospice Foundation
Board and served for six years. I’ve helped
raise money and public awareness, and
worked on projects. I have included the
Foundation in my estate plan.
How would you describe Hospice Giving
Foundation and their role in supporting
hospice care?
Without the grants the Foundation gives
to organizations, many programs would
have a hard time existing. Many of these
groups don’t have staff to fundraise. The
Foundation is a very important organization
to them. In the past, many people have
donated from their estates. It’s time now
to reach out to people who can give to a
charity and want to help.
Has volunteering for hospice been important
to you?
Oh, it really has. After Jane died, I
dropped all the organizations I had
supported and focused on hospice. A
Page 2 :: Hospice Giving Foundation :: hospicegiving.org :: Annual Report 2015
What would you say to someone who was
asking why they should support Hospice
Giving Foundation?
One needs to think about and recognize
that we all die. It’s such a traumatic time.
Hospice Giving Foundation is there to
make sure one has care, comfort, and
every resource that’s available at the end
of life. Hospice Giving Foundation makes
this possible.
To me, it’s one of the most important
organizations that exists in our community.
Often people don’t know where to
turn when they need help, and the
Foundation supports so many kinds
of care. It’s important to publicize its
function to the community. They can
help you, and there’s a way the public
can help in turn.
It’s comforting to know that I can
continue to honor my dear friend.
Hospice Care
It takes a special person who
can help minimize the suffering
of a loved one.
~ Brian Corley
Hospice care has been providing patients with compassionate care at the end of life since the 1960s. Focused on
pain management and the emotional and physical needs of people in the last six months of life, this care brings
relief and a sense of dignity to patients and their families. Hospice care includes spiritual support, the help of welltrained volunteers, and may include ancillary therapies such as massage, music, and art.

Palliative Care
Palliative care is a term not well understood. It is a specialized medical approach for people with serious illnesses
and differs from hospice care. In recent years, palliative care has been more available to patients and their families
in our community. Hospice Giving Foundation is proud to fund several local providers, and we are encouraged to see
innovative approaches to this important element of end-of-life care. Once available only in hospitals, palliative care is
being developed for outpatient settings and community-based programs.
Palliative care focuses on the patient, not simply the disease. Seriously ill patients are cared for holistically, with a
team that includes a physician, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and others. The goal is to improve the quality of life
through symptom relief, pain and stress management, and strong family support. Palliative care is appropriate at any
age and at any stage in a serious illness and can be provided along with curative treatment.
Funding Palliative Care:
Since its inception, Hospice Giving Foundation has contributed over $2 million to support palliative care in
Monterey and San Benito Counties.
Hospice Giving Foundation Grants allow agencies to:
̥̥ Dedicate a trained physician to palliative-care service
̥̥ Provide spiritual care through a chaplain experienced in palliative care
̥̥ Pay for continuing education for a palliative care physician and the team of professionals
̥̥ Make home nursing care visits and provide needed at-home medical equipment
̥̥ Conduct team planning sessions to coordinate care
̥̥ Conduct physician outreach and education to expand the understanding, use, and acceptance of palliative care
Create Possibilities: Plan Now
Hospice Giving Foundation and the agencies it funds
are expanding access to choices for end-of-life care.
Over time we’ve seen innovation and expansion of
services happen through the generosity of donors who
make it possible through planned giving.
Planned giving provides you with options for your
philanthropic goals. You drive the process in a way
that works best for you and, by doing so, you make
our community a place that defines exceptional and
dignified care at the end of life.
̥̥
̥̥

̥̥
Establish a legacy for yourself and your loved ones.
Express gratitude for the care your family member
received by giving back, so that care is available
broadly in our community.
Show your compassion for your friends, colleagues,
and neighbors. Help ensure they too have the
highest quality care possible—when they need it
and how they need it.
Become a part of the Foundation’s vision to make
our community a place where living well includes
dying peacefully, in comfort, and with dignity.

Give what
you have
been given
an
interview
with
Brian
Kelly
By the traditional measures of generosity,
Brian Kelly, our founding board chair and
one of our strongest supporters, is generous
indeed.
In addition, Brian has long been a trained
hospice counselor. At the age of 83, he
is still giving advice and solace to people
facing the end of life.
Brian could hardly be more generous with
both his time and his financial support.
Still, he offers more: he has a rare gift for
bringing comfort to others, as we found
when we sat down with him recently. When
Brian talks about the end of life and the
importance of compassionate care, he
draws on deep insights gained from his own
suffering.
In 1979, Brian and Patricia Kelly learned
that Patricia had renal cell carcinoma, a
disease that only rarely occurs in women,
and one with a low survival rate.
Brian was on the Hospice (Giving)
Foundation board for almost 20 years. He
began when our ancestor organization was
a small 6-bed hospice provider in Carmel
Valley. He remained involved through the
capital campaign to build what is now
Westland House. Then he was pivotal
in the negotiations to sell the asset and
program to Community Hospital, so that
the Foundation could be formed to serve a
broader purpose.
Through the years, he has served in many
other ways, including as a construction
engineer, offering his skills at no charge to
us, other nonprofits, and churches.
“Once we learned what the odds were, we
agreed that we didn’t want chemotherapy.
We didn’t want to drag the kids through
this, with only five percent chance of
survival. It would have been really very
difficult on them. Difficult enough as it
was. So you make these choices as you go
along.”
Still, “she was able to survive from that
point, not two months, but seven, maybe
eight months.”
In part, Brian credits it to friends and
neighbors, especially those who knew how
to offer the kind of support Patricia needed.
reach in and be where you are. And that’s
what I learned as well. How to come and
be where she is, not my demanding her to
come and be where I am.”
Brian learned to screen his wife’s visitors,
watching for “the difference between
someone who took energy and someone
who gave.” He would fend off the former
and welcome the latter.
He also had to face his own fear of losing
her, to prevent it being a barrier to helping
her.
“You see your wife dying slowly, and part
“How do you respond? How do you do it?”
Brian remembers asking himself those
questions over and over. Now, he says,
“Everything is your response, your response
to what you had been dealt.”
The first thing Brian did was to devote
himself to being Patricia’s advocate.
“I said, ‘What would you like me to do for
you? You’re the one going through this.’
“She said, ‘You go out and find all the
options. You be my cheerleader.’ So that
became my role.”
Doctors had given Patricia two months to
live. Brian explored every option to save, or
at least extend, her life—although some,
they rejected.
Page 10 :: Hospice Giving Foundation :: hospicegiving.org :: Annual Report 2015
He fondly remembers a woman who died
recently at the age of 97, who would come
and sit with Patricia, and sometimes sing
to her.
of you... psychologically, you’re trying to
protect yourself. But yet, you’re trying to
provide her all of her needs and to sacrifice
what’s going on within yourself.”
“She brought a warmth and a love, and it
became so apparent that she came to give
it away. She came to be with you, and to
Brian found that Patricia herself became
his teacher in how to face the prospect of
life ending.
“As the disease progressed, I would have
to change. I noticed that she was in a
different place, maybe multiple times
during the day. And it required me to get in
where she was, asking the right questions,
being totally observant. She really taught
me how to get there.”
“It was incredibly powerful... for me to walk
alongside this lovely lady in her journey,
and supporting her, and encouraging her,
and watching her progress, her spiritual
progress.”
Even as they struggled for her life, Patricia
and Brian found strength in acceptance, of
whatever came.
What came brought much suffering. But it
also led to what Brian now calls grace.
He describes it in terms of their shared
Catholic faith, although he emphasizes that
he believes grace is there for people of all
faiths—or no faith.
“’When I become weak and I allow God’s
grace to come in, I become strong,’ he
says, quoting St. Paul. “If we are open to
the grace, it can come in many different
ways.”
“I’ve kind of dropped the word ‘religious.’
I’ve dropped the word ‘Muslim,’ or
‘Christian, or ‘Jewish,’ or whatever. We
all have within us a—call it an on-board
computer, call it spirituality. We have
to access it. Who are we? What is it all
about?”
What it’s about, Brian concluded, is giving.
When Patricia died, Brian says, he was
“numb, for probably two or three months.”
One day, though, “It dawned on me. When
we put the casket in the ground, half of me
was in there. It was all of our expectations,
all of our hopes, all of the stuff... I was
totally—psychologically, I was totally
different.”
“The pivotal thing, which [had] totally
changed my life, was… learning to give
away what I had for the need of someone
else.”
“In a sense, part of this journey was waking
up.”
For 20 years, Brian had lived with a woman
It was another lesson from Patricia.
“If she survived this, she wanted to go help
people who were going through what she
was going through… and I realized wow,
I’ve been trained to do what she wanted to
do.”
That’s what Brian has done, ever since, and
more. In addition to all the contributions
he’s made to Hospice Giving Foundation,
in each of its incarnations, he has helped
build the National Steinbeck Center and
“The culture [is] kind of pulling this way
which is, “Okay, we don’t have to worry
about death. That’s way down the road.”
But Brian found happiness by going through
suffering.
“It was a gift. You get tremendous strength
from it. You become a better person—but
only if you experience the full depths of it.
If you go through the process, whatever that
might mean to you, you come out a better
person.”
Then, for him, happiness did come.
“Go out and live a life
that has depth to it.”
he deeply loved, and now she was gone.
And yet, though his suffering was terrible,
he now feels that it also brought him a gift.
Through taking care of Patricia, “I had
experienced sacrificial love, which is real
love, in a sense.”
He had discovered the purpose that has
driven his life ever since. In 1983, at the
age of 51, he retired from a successful
career with Granite Construction.
“I loved what I did with Granite. If I had
stayed with it, who knows? But there was
such a draw to... you need to get out and
give away what you’ve learned through this
journey, which is basically love, helping
others in their particular journey.”
“It’s how you live your life. Go out and live
a life that has depth to it, because you’ve
been given all the gifts.”
“Do something that you believe in, and give
what you’ve learned. What is done to you,
give it away… and you’re happy to do it.”
“It was through suffering that I found
deeper love.”
the Salinas headquarters of the Boys and
Girls Clubs, helped renovate and reinforce
churches and missions, and done other
good work all over the Central Coast.
Often, he works with his second wife,
Marcia, whom he married in 1982. Like
Brian, Marcia has long been active in
serving the community, and shares his
commitment to our Foundation.
Always, Brian says, they both find that they
get back more than they give.
The question, he says, is, “Where do I
get my happiness?” Many people expect
happiness to be given to them, by a good
marriage, success, entertainment, or drink
or drugs—all while avoiding suffering.

Tree of Life 2015
During the holiday season,
people look for ways to reflect
on and to remember loved ones.
Tree of Life Celebrations bring
people together to honor family,
friends, and the people who bring
meaning to our lives. Trees of Life,
each illuminated with hundreds
of white lights dedicated to loved
ones, shone brightly each night
throughout the holiday season in
Salinas, Monterey, and King City.
Over $63,000 was raised to help
local agencies continue providing
dignified and compassionate
end-of-life care in our community.
I have attended every Tree of Life
Celebration since it started, except for last
year. This year’s celebration by far was one
of the most beautiful celebrations I have
ever attended.

In the tradition
of the holiday
spirit...
an interview with
Janine Chicourrat
& Rene Boscoff
Janine Chicourrat and Rene Boscoff, General
Managers of the Portola Hotel and Spa and the
Monterey Marriott, respectively, have for many
years supported the Hospice Giving Foundation
Tree of Life Celebrations.
How did you two become involved with the Tree of
Life celebration?
RB: When I came here in 1997, the Marriott
Hotel was already participating in the event— we
would assist the Foundation with setting up the
big Christmas tree, inviting people to participate,
and helping raise money. We were excited to
help.
JC: I actually got involved just a couple of years
ago. The Conference Center had traditionally
been in partnership with the Marriott for this big
tree-lighting event, and the Foundation wanted
to explore a new space that was more visible. I
didn’t know much about the event until then,
just that the Marriott had a great big tree on top
of their hotel. Later, my husband reminded me
that for years he’s bought an ornament to support
Hospice Giving Foundation.
Can you tell me what goes into having the tree on
top of the Marriott Hotel?
RB: To most it doesn’t look like a big deal. We
just put a tree on top of the hotel, decorate it,
and we’re all set. But behind the scenes, there’re
all sorts of intricate details that my Director of
Engineering has down to a science. The key
point is that you want to make sure the tree stays
on top of the hotel. And I know that’s funny, but
it’s a real concern—some years we’ve had winds
as strong as 50, 60 miles per hour. So, to ensure
that the tree doesn’t become Mary Poppins
and start flying through downtown, we spend a
fair amount of time on the securing process. I
need to have total assurance that even if we get
hurricane winds, the tree is secure.
And then—every year—the timing of getting
the lights on creates a kind of anxiety, not for the
people watching but for the general manager of
the Marriott Hotel. We have one person on the
roof, and our engineer in the crowd, talking via
radio to make sure the timing is impeccable, so
that when we say, “Ok, everybody, look up!” the
lights go on. It’s always fun creating the little
extra oomph for the event.
What about the tree in the Portola lobby and the
program? What goes into preparing for that?
JC: First of all, Hospice Giving Foundation does
all the heavy lifting. They coordinate the entire
program and create a spectacular event. From
the hotel’s perspective, it’s relatively simple
for us to be involved. I give all the credit to the
Foundation for all the work they do, especially
the entertainment.
We have so much talent in this community. To
see our military in full uniform performing for
people from all walks of life is something special.
The Camerata Singers are incredible and when
the young children come in and sing, it reminds
you how quickly life goes by and how you need
to value it.
What about the tone of this event compared to
others that you’re involved with?
JC: You’re really inviting your community into
your hotel, and they’re there to honor people
they’ve lost. It’s not about the commercialization
that happens in the world today; it’s more about
remembering your loved ones and supporting a
wonderful foundation.
RB: That’s an excellent point. Many of our staff
live locally, and everyone can, whatever their age,
resonate with somebody who has passed. I think
there’s a great emotional tie because of that, one
they all appreciate being part of.
Are there any experiences you’d like to share?
JC: That my husband has throughout the years
gotten an ornament in honor of his father— and
seeing the difference between hospice care and
Hospice Giving Foundation. Understanding the
importance of the Foundation is something that’s
been eye-opening for me. I hope the community
understands the importance and value of it.
RB: For me, I got a much better understanding
and appreciation after my father-in-law passed,
because his last six months of life were very
difficult for the whole family. He was in and out
of hospitals, though he was mostly at home. My
wife spent about six weeks there, sharing with
me every evening what happened during the
day. And I’ve got to tell you, he received hospice
care, and it was exceptional. They kept him as
comfortable as possible during this time. It was
a very emotional experience, and a huge learning
curve as far as what a terrific support hospice
care is. I’ve never looked at hospice the same
way since. I have a very deep appreciation for
what the service does.
What do you notice in the reactions of the people
who come to events like Tree of Life?
JC: There’s a peacefulness, in terms of the way
the feeling is in the room. I’m not sure there’s a
better way to describe it.
RB: That’s a great word to use for it—
peacefulness. It’s really beautiful, and once you
attend, it’s very hard not to feel the love and the
peace that is being experienced.
Has this helped you to think about your own
planning?
JC: Unfortunately I had some very young friends
die of cancer. They had hospice care and the
professionalism and the care of the actual
caregivers—I mean, I couldn’t do that job.
They’re so compassionate and they’re so giving.
When you go through a process with someone
who’s very close to you, you realize how fortunate
we are to have that in our community.
RB: I guess my realization is, “Thank God for
hospice,” and come the day it’s time to go,
I hope they are available. None of us gets to
choose the end of life, but if it were to be due
to an illness, I am just grateful they’re available.
Frankly, it does create peace of mind.
How would you describe the Tree of Life celebration
to a friend you wanted to invite to attend?
RB: My question would be, “Do you have family
members who have passed?” At my age, most
of us do. And I would invite them to attend this
event because I’m not sure I would be eloquent
enough to describe the emotional experience. I
am very much convinced that once someone has
attended, they will want to make this an annual
experience.
JC: Yes, I would say, step away from your holiday
gift buying and parties, and come do something
that is really in the tradition of the holiday spirit.
RB: The holidays really bring out a bigger
question: do you want to be remembered by your
family and friends by what you gave them, or by
what you brought into their lives?
Any final thoughts?
JC: I encourage more of the community to
come out, to take advantage of this wonderful
event. I think people really don’t understand the
Foundation and what it does for our community.
I want them to learn more about it.
RB: My wish would be that attendance to this
event was so large that, once the Conference
Center is remodeled, we could fill up the
entire Sierra Ballroom with people from this
community, all taking a little time to think about
their loved ones, and about the people who have
had an influence on their lives.

Outreach and Education
In 2001, Hospice Giving Foundation started supporting a community outreach program well known to many—Compassionate
Care Alliance. Vicki Nelson, who served as CCA’s Executive Director since its inception, retired in December of 2015. Vicki
was the force behind CCA which provided valuable education to people across Monterey County. The Foundation’s initial and
subsequent annual grants were essential in making CCA programs and events possible.
The need in our community for end-of-life education, awareness, and preparedness is vitally important and the Foundation is
committed to ensuring this work continues. The professional team at Hospice Giving Foundation will be conducting a broad
range of planning workshops, seminars, and collaborations regarding end-of-life preparedness. In light of changes to the system
of care for end of life, including increased use of palliative care and the end-of-life legislation, these conversations and planning
workshops are more important than ever. Visit our website to learn about the schedule of workshops on topics such as advance
care planning, use of the POLST (Physician Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment), understanding grief and family dynamics, and
specialty topics to help individuals and families prepare for end-of-life care and decision making.

decision making. Go to hospicegiving.org.
Children’s Palliative Care
Hearing the words “child” and “end-of-life care” in the same sentence is heartbreaking. A child’s lifethreatening illness takes an average family and turns their world upside-down. Finding the right medical
treatment is only a part of the battle. Balancing the needs of the ill child and the rest of the family becomes
incredibly complex and challenging. Through grants to three local agencies, Hospice Giving Foundation
supports an all-encompassing approach to caring for the child and helping the family.
Palliative care for a child, which often involves a lengthy course of treatment, includes curative therapies,
pain management, in-home nursing, and comfort care. Extensive family support—a cornerstone of children’s
palliative care—includes grief and family therapy, as well as practical resources for costly medications,
household necessities, and transportation.
Funding Care for Terminally Ill Children:
Since 2004, Hospice Giving Foundation has contributed nearly $2 million to pediatric palliative care in
Monterey and San Benito Counties. Initial funding supported the development of the Pediatric Collaborative,
which brought together local providers to establish a responsive, complementary, and unduplicated system of
care for their patients and families.
Hospice Giving Foundation Grants provide for:
̥̥ In-home nursing care and multi-agency service coordination
̥̥
̥̥ Grief and family therapy, and ongoing support
̥̥ Specialized medical equipment
̥̥
2015 Grants Awarded to Support
Children’s Palliative Care:

or Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital in Palo Alto
Stipends for basic needs, groceries, and rent
̥̥
̥̥
Expressive arts therapies
Clinical training for staff
Grief and Family Support Services
No matter how much we prepare, loss brings profound grief. Often beginning with a diagnosis and extending well beyond a
loved one’s final days, family members face various forms of grief, a process that differs for each person. Patients, too, will
probably feel grief as their final days approach and can find solace in spiritual guidance—regardless of religious affiliation—
to help them take their journey more peacefully. Hospice Giving Foundation awards grants for grief therapy and ongoing
support for families and individuals to help them come to terms with life after a loss. Timelines are fluid and and various
methodologies are used: people can access services that fit their needs.
Funding for Grief Support:
Since its inception, Hospice Giving Foundation has provided over $1.6 million for grief counseling, services for special
populations, and a range of family support programs.
̥̥
̥̥
Individual complex grief support
Grief therapy & support groups
