CONCEPT: Supporting our mission that Wells House Hospice is dedicated to providing compassionate care to terminally ill patients and their families and providing end-of-life education and training for health care teams and the community, we propose to present the many faces that make up hospice. A consistent and particular image will be presented to our public to support a solid identity to increase public awareness and funding.
KEY COPY: I am hospice. And I am looking to be an essential part of the hospice philosophy of care which recognizes that dying is not just a medical event but also a personal one. Looking forward, I recognize the new face of hospice includes me. Volunteer, donate, or support. I need your help. Please give today.

“The best work I’ve seen. I truly appreciate your talent and time.”
It is important to note Wells House Hospice closed doors shortly after the campaign was instituted. The short time I was there, working with the owner and founder, Ronald Morgan, speaking with his staff, and listening to some of the patients, I left inspired and forever changed for the better.
