Historical Newsletters, Friends of Hospice San Antonio

Celebrating Our 30th Anniversary (1991-2021)

"IN THE BEGINNING . . . . ."

in 1991, a small group of dedicated volunteers interested in supporting not-for-profit Hospice San Antonio formed Friends of Hospice San Antonio.

With your support, Friends of Hospice San Antonio donated over $150,000 to CHRISTUS HEALTH FOUNDATION for uninsured hospice patients in FY 20-21. This fiscal year, our goal is $150,000.00.

Throughout 2021-2022, FHSA will be producing a Historical Newsletter featuring past presidents, along with sharing highlights from their presidencies. Click on the newsletter links below to read of the accomplishments of Friends of Hospice San Antonio throughout our past 30 years.
