Over 80% of Americans want to spend their last days at home, with friends and family. Yet, despite these desires, 75% of Americans will spend their last days in a hospital room. Many people will spend hours each day getting painful and often useless treatments and tests, and be asked to take dozens of debilitating drugs. For many, the cure is worse than the disease. This often has negative and lasting effects on family and friends who are often left with feelings of guilt and regret for years to come.
Hospice Support Fund is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting end of life care at home rather than in a hospital so patients can spend their last days in dignity and peace, pain-free in familiar, comfortable surroundings with friends and family.

Children International, a U.S.-based humanitarian organization, has seen that comprehensive, targeted programs provided in a caring environment empower youth to escape the traps of poverty. The organization’s 2012 Youth Report explains how.
More than one-third of the world’s population, nearly 2.5 billion people, live on less than US $2 a day according to The World Bank. Employment can be life-changing for these people, but poverty is a hard trap to escape when it is all you know. Children International’s comprehensive youth programs provide young people with thoughtfully designed tools and experiences that can open doors to a life beyond poverty.

Tired of all of the negative news? From taxes to unemployment to the upcoming election, Princess Cruises is stepping in to help people get away from it all with “The Campaign to Escape Completely.” Now through November 6, the cruise line is focusing on what it does best - offering consumers the chance to escape completely by giving away FREE Caribbean and West Coast Getaway cruises, plus a chance to win a cruise on the new Royal Princess through games and sweepstakes. The “anti-negativity” campaign will also feature a sequence of videos supporting the theme, all of which are cast entirely with Princess Cruises employees.
