Mitchell House A nonprofit residential care home offering hospice, palliative, respite, and residential care with the comfort, compassion, and warmth of home.

Establishing a hospice house to serve Siouxland is the dream of Margaret Mitchell-Wilcox. Margo has personal experience with the daunting task of managing a loved one’s final illness and has had family members and close friends go through this ordeal, as well. In addition to dealing with the emotional burden of the illness, there is also the question of where to manage it. For various reasons the family home might not be the ideal location but it is often the only option available. Margo has long thought that there had to be a “better way.”
The better way was found when Margo learned about the idea of building a home where hospice care can be provided to the patient and family members can gather with their loved one in a comfortable, peaceful setting. The hospice house concept is known throughout the country, but Mitchell House will be the first such facility in Sioux City, Iowa. Margo’s first husband, Ray Mitchell Jr., was a fourth generation resident of Sioux City. He and Margo raised their three children there and were very proud to call Sioux City home. Ray passed away suddenly in 1997. The Mitchell House is named in his memory and is seen by Margo and her family as a way to give something back to Siouxland, the area they love. Your monetary donations to Mitchell Hospice House are greatly appreciated and fully tax deductible. Donate using our online giving form at mitchellhospicehouse.org.

❤️ Help Us Keep Mitchell House Here for the People Who Need Us ❤️

Every day at Mitchell House, our staff provide 24/7 care to people living with life-limiting illnesses. We are there around the clock — helping with medications, personal care, meals, repositioning, comfort, and all of the little things that allow someone to live their final days with dignity and peace.

That care comes at a cost.

Our fundraiser on Sunday, November 8 is an important part of helping Mitchell House continue operating and providing this level of care to the people and families who depend on us.

🍽️ Join us at Buffalo Alice at 4:00 PM for food, fun, and our auction!

But if you can’t make it, you can still be part of our fundraiser!

We will be adding our auction items to Zeffy, where you will be able to bid on items online from wherever you are. You can also make a donation directly through Zeffy.

Every bid. Every donation. Every share. It all helps. ❤️

We are so grateful for the community that continues to believe in the mission of Mitchell House and understands how important it is to have a place where people can receive 24/7 care, comfort, dignity, and compassion when they need it most.

Please consider supporting Mitchell House — whether you join us in person, bid online, make a donation, or simply share this post.
