A note from one of our many local charity recipients: VNA & Hospice Foundation. 😀 It's an honor to support such an amazing Foundation, constantly doing work to better the community!

"We would like to thank the Wheels & Keels Foundation for their ongoing support. This year they granted funding to our Project Wish program. Project Wish is a donor funded hospice program providing patients and their families experiences that will produce lasting memories."

"Last month, the VNA was granted $5,000 from the Wheels & Keels Foundation Inc. This support help ensures that we can continue to grant wishes to those at their end-of-life journey. In addition, this contributes toward a beautiful experience that brings a smile to the faces of patients and families as they face a very difficult and emotional time in their lives."
