Camarillo Hospice receives $10,000 grant

In December 2006 Camarillo Hospice received a $10,000 grant from the S. Mark Taper Foundation in support of its ongoing mission of providing practical, emotional and counseling support to individuals and families who are dealing with lifethreatening illness and/or grief associated with loss.

"It's great to start a new year off with a nice grant like this," said Sandy Nirenberg, executive director of Camarillo Hospice.

The S. Mark Taper Foundation, founded in 1989, is a private family foundation dedicated to enhancing the quality of people's lives by supporting nonprofit organizations and their work in local communities.
