Providing assistance for the terminally ill and their families

St. Joseph Hospice Foundation (SJHF) is a non-profit corporation, chartered in January of 2003, which provides assistance to terminally ill patients and their families. The mission of the foundation is to provide peace, comfort and dignity to those facing a terminal illness, regardless of which hospice agency they choose.

Donations to SJHF are used to offer supportive care for non funded patients and families and help provide for living expenses, funeral costs, memorial services and more. SJHF provides over $50,000 yearly in communities throughout Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Texas.
