“I wanted to support the Schneck Foundation's Hospice Fund because I have experienced the gratitude of family members as they received the support of Hospice staff. Their loved one receives excellent care, and later the remaining family members are offered helpful resources to navigate their grief.”
~ Michael Seaney, Monthly Donor
Your Gifts at Work!
Schneck Hospice Projects
Through a Schneck Foundation grant, butterfly clings were purchased to provide a visual cue that identifies a patient as a hospice patient for Emergency Medical Services. This helps decrease unnecessary emergency room visits for hospice patients and increase the quality of care provided.
Various medical equipment for Hospice patients has been purchased to support patient safety and comfort for end-of-life care. In addition, copies of "A Different Season" book for hospice patients, families, and caregivers were purchased to provide information about Hospice care, education, and support.
Reins to Recovery
Through a Schneck Foundation grant, 72 equine-assisted therapy sessions were provided to individuals facing mental health challenges. These sessions included both Equine-Assisted Learning and Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy, blending the unique therapeutic benefits of working with horses to foster emotional growth and personal development. The program is a collaborative effort between a licensed therapist and an equine specialist ensuring a safe, supportive, and impactful experience for participants.
Whole Health Connection Zone Project
The Schneck Foundation pledged $75,000 to the Whole Health Connection Zone project in support of mental health and substance use disorder treatment and recovery. This is a collaboration among five community partners including the Jackson County Board of Commissioners/County Council, the City of Seymour, the Schneck Foundation, ASAP of Bartholomew County, and the Community Foundation of Jackson County, with additional funding from the Lilly Endowment, Inc. to help enhance the quality of life of residents in Jackson County. The project is set to begin in 2025.
Vein Viewer
We purchased a Vein Viewer to improve quality and patient satisfaction in the Schneck laboratory, particularly for patients with difficult to access veins.
Safe Sitter Program
With funding from a Schneck Foundation grant, Safe Sitter is offered at no cost to children entering grades 6 through 8 in our service area. This program teaches them how to become responsible and safe babysitters. Over the past three years, 354 children have participated in this important community initiative.
