CLEARFIELD – Thursday marked the return of Clearfield Hospital Hospice’s annual Chili Bowl event.
Proceeds benefit the Clearfield Hospice program by covering expenses that are not covered by insurance. Monies are used to help alleviate burdens from hospice patients and families in need who are facing end-of-life issues.
The fundraiser also supports the bereavement program and the grief camp for children and teens. This is a free service offered to anyone in the community who has suffered a loss.
Clearfield Hospice provides personal care and support for terminally ill persons and their families. It serves residents of Clearfield, Centre and Jefferson counties, as well as the bordering counties of Elk, Indiana, Cambria, Clinton and Blair.
