The Mission and History of the Hospice at EVK
The hospice at EVK, established under the guiding principle of "Living until the end," has been serving hundreds of patients since its opening. Its mission is to provide compassionate end-of-life care, and it has built a reputation for excellent palliative care in the community. Over the past five years, it has significantly contributed to raising awareness about hospice services in Germany and improving local access to end-of-life care.
Participating Artists' Support for the Hospice
The artists participating in the concert have agreed to perform out of their support for the hospice work, underscoring the hospice's role as a vital resource for patients and families in the region. Admission to the hospice on Quirlsberg is free for guests, allowing them to experience firsthand the care and dedication provided by the hospice staff.
Financial Support for the Hospice
Like all hospices in Germany, the hospice at EVK relies on financial support through donations. The majority of its financing comes from health and nursing insurance funds, but it must bear 5% of the running costs itself every year. The benefit concert is one of the ways the hospice seeks financial support to continue its vital work.
