Summer 2013 CONTENTS a NOTE Summer 2013 from Within CROSSROADS For Friends of Hospice 2013 SUMMER CONTENTS A NOTE SUMMER 2013 from within A Strong Foundation Public versus private. Type I, Type II or Type III. Foundations are often tricky things to explain – at least without an IRS tax code manual and dictionary in hand. Most non-profit organizations have development departments charged with fundraising to further the organization’s mission. For many years, Center for Hospice Care operated on that model. Assuring that Center for p22-23 Building a Strong Hospice Care can fulfill its 33-year-old promise that no one eligible for hospice care is ever turned away, regardless of ability to pay, has been, and will always be, our primary concern. But as we grew and our mission broadened to include other educational and advocacy issues, Foundation a new model became necessary. Two Organizations, One Mission In 2007, Hospice Foundation (technically a Type II supporting foundation) was formed to support the work of Center for Hospice Care – and engage in activities that encourage p4-7 29th Annual Helping Hands Award Dinner awareness of hospice, palliative care and end-of-life issues in our eight-county service area and around the world. As the cover story further explains, we have four primary areas of focus: Celebrates Life fundraising, stewardship, collaboration and education. In this issue of Crossroads, you’ll find examples of each of these. Walk for Hospice and Bike Michiana for Hospice are two of our largest fundraising activities. The three Notre Dame students who undertook internships in Uganda this summer illustrate both our collaborative endeavors as well as our education component. The donor display being created for our new Mishawaka campus is just one example of our stewardship. We also work hard to make sure our supporters understand how their gifts are used.

    1 Too Loud In ‘Ere A Tale of 20 Years of Live Music Jonny Hall, June 2017 (c) Jonny Hall/DJ Terminates Here, 2017. Some rights reserved. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. 2 Introduction Every live gig I’ve ever been to has given me some kind of story to tell. You could ask me about any of them and I could come up with at least one occurrence that captured the spirit of the night. But not every live show has been truly ‘special’. I’ve seen excellent performances by bands with crowds numbering in their thousands that were simply ‘very good nights out’. No more, no less. No, it’s those gigs that leave you buzzing all the way home that count, the ones where you really felt part of something special and years later, need only think of that occasion to be right back there, in soul if not in body. Sometimes the whole gig doesn’t have to be brilliant, a single ‘magic moment’ is all you need. And it’s those events that have kept me coming back for more. Most people just settle for a few favourites and watch them every time they come round. I’m not like that. I’ve rolled the dice on catching relatively unknown bands plenty of times (especially at festivals). You never know what you might discover. It doesn’t always work. I’ve had my share of dead nights, shitty soundsystems and line-ups that seem to shift every time you look at them.
