Boldt, TDS, Theda Care, Independent Installation Services and so many more are making our new home amazing!!! We’ll have some fantastic spaces to show shortly. Fox Valley Advance Care Planning Partnership gets to enjoy this blessing because Mosaic Family Health is our Feduciary oversight and gives us in-kind support (non-dollars). We raise our own funds separately through community donations. If you’d like to make a year-end tax deductible donation or sponsor our community or corporate advance care planning efforts, give me a call!

We’re moving today to our new Mosaic Family Health home.

Oneida St. (Fox Commons) Appleton! More to come… our website is in the same, of course: www.fvacpp.org We welcome your year-end tax deductible donations at www.fvacpp.org/support (Moving is expensive!)

Consider just a few of the benefits of Advance Care Planning (POA-health care or Advance Directive for Health Care).

Key points of Advance Directive for Health Care completion (PRIOR to a serious illness, accident, or end of life): * Completing an advance directive reduces the burden for the individual and their family members. * An advance directive ensures legally and medically that one's wishes are followed. * Unwanted medical care and procedures can be avoided with an advance directive. * Loved ones can grieve more easily and feel less guilt and depression at the end. highlights from Bob Uslander, MD, Pshychology Today article Oct. 30, 2024 www.fvacpp.org (920) 997-8412

Am I the only one that thinks it’s odd: Giving Tuesday comes after Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday? What’s left in the wallet when giving is last? This year, instead of “I Wanna get…”or getting first, would you think “They need a” or move tax-deductible giving higher on your list? FVACPP has survived for 25 years on year end giving, but this year we, (along with many other non-profits), are struggling to make ends meet, to serve you and yours. Would you consider your charitable gift higher on the year end list? See how different it feels. Advance Care Planning, it’s a gift to your loved ones. It’s thinking ahead for yourself and another’s peace of mind. Happier holidays. www.fvacpp.org/support
