info_outlineWhether from natural causes, tragedy, or the pandemic, most of us know know someone who has suffered loss this year. In the same vein, it’s also possible that you know someone who is nearing the end of life and hospice has been called in to help with nursing care, medications, and other medical needs related to a terminal illness.
Today's guest today is passionate about honoring hospice patients in very practical and tangible ways at the end of their lives.
Meet Jean Rosenbaum, the founder and Executive Director of Gifted Wishes located in Oregon but serving hospice patients throughout the United States. In this episode, Jean shares how her nonprofit was birthed out of her own personal health crisis and a desire to serve those on the cusp of eternity.
Whether a precious one year old or someone who is 100 years strong, Jean’s organization is ready to enhance end of life care with “gifted wishes” which could range from purchasing basic equipment to cords of wood or providing a wonderful meal with a longtime friend who otherwise wouldn’t have the chance to say goodbye. Jean’s mission will touch your heart, and her enthusiasm for life will inspire you to set strong boundaries and get clear on the things that matter most.
Remember, nonprofit leadership is about more than the mission itself. It’s about making sure you’re here for the long haul so you can move your mission forward without burning out. I think you’ll enjoy this conversation with Jean Rosenbaum who might just be the only nonprofit founder you know who took a selfie in the trunk of her Tesla.
