STAR Center Music Therapy Hospice Care Fundraiser
For the past year, STAR Center Inc. and our Music Therapy team have been honored to serve clients in Hospice Care thanks to a fundraiser held for the STAR Center several years ago.
We are currently serving six hospice clients in the Jackson area, however, we are at the end of our funding.
We are committed to assisting these clients and their families during this time with dignity, grace, and hopefully, a degree of joy, and we need your help.
Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous local donor, all donations up to $5,000 will be matched! All donations given below will go directly to continuing services for the six clients we are currently serving with Music Therapy services.
About Music Therapy in Hospice Care:
Music Therapy in the hospice setting can look different from client to client, however, some of the primary goals that our music therapists are working towards include the following:
• Assisting in decreasing pain and discomfort through individualized interventions.
• Facilitating family communication, relationship completion, and social interaction through creative means.
• Providing alternative opportunities for processing emotions related to death and dying or bereavement.
• Facilitating avenues for spiritual expression and support.
