Hinds LifeCare

Hinds Hospice delivers end-of-life care and bereavement services throughout California's Central Valley from its Fresno headquarters. The organization's Center for Grief & Healing facilitates specialized support groups addressing pregnancy loss through Angel Babies, suicide bereavement via HALO, and other specific loss experiences at no cost to participants. Their clinical programs operate alongside Hinds LifeCare, which coordinates patient companionship volunteers and manages community outreach initiatives. The organization maintains three core service divisions: professional hospice care, grief counseling programs, and community support services. Hinds' volunteer network provides direct patient care, administrative assistance, and retail operations at their thrift store location. Their funding model combines healthcare reimbursement, charitable donations, and social enterprise revenue through retail operations. Hinds Hospice has established itself as a Central California healthcare resource since its founding, earning recognition in multiple categories of the Fresno Bee's People's Choice awards. The organization's integrated service model encompasses clinical care, bereavement support, and volunteer programs. Their community presence includes educational outreach, fundraising events, and retail operations supporting their nonprofit mission.
