Lane Spa Raises More Than $7,000 for Hospice of Palm Beach County
PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL. – On Saturday, November 14, 2009, Lane Spa in Palm Beach Gardens, Fl. hosted a spa day featuring pedicures, massages, facials and other services with 100% of the proceeds benefiting Hospice of Palm Beach County.
“Lane Spa has been a great supporter of our organization,” said Greg Leach, President of Hospice of Palm Beach County Foundation. “We are incredibly grateful for their support and the support of the community. By contributing to our organization through events like this, the community is playing a large part in ensuring we are able to care for all patients and families in this community that need and want our service.”
Spa appointments for the day were completely booked from open to close as dozens came out in support of the programs and services Hospice of Palm Beach County provides to the community, regardless of one’s ability to pay. “We are proud to announce that with this event, Lane Spa was able to donate more than $7,000 to benefit our non-reimbursable programs such as integrative therapies, bereavement services and more,” said Leach.
