TJ Foundation receives $500,000 gift to support Hospice Home Gift names the Home and supports $2.5 million campaign By Bart Logsdon News from TJ Samson Community Hospital GLASGOW, KY - The TJ Community Mission Foundation announced a gift of $500,000 from five donors to support a new 6-bed hospice home in Glasgow. The gifts support the Love Makes a House a Home campaign and will name the hospice home "Shanti Niketan" (shawn-TEE NEE KAY-tun), meaning "peaceful place." The gift to name the Hospice Home includes a generous commitment from Drs. Bharat and Bharati Mody, along with gifts from Donna and Mike Bryant, Lisa and Dan Foutch, Kim and Owen Lambert, and an anonymous donor. To date, the Love Makes a House a Home campaign, which began with hospital and foundation board leadership commitment in December 2015, has raised over $851,000 in cash and pledges toward its $2.5 million goal. "We are very encouraged to begin the campaign for this hospice home with such strong support from generous donors," said Owen Lambert, TJ Community Mission Foundation Board Vice-Chair. "Kim and I are honored to play a small role in this extraordinary gift that names the Hospice Home. 'Shanti Niketan' is a very fitting name for a place where people will find comfort and peace at the end of their lives." Dr. Bharat Mody explained his view of the name, "In my mind, Shanti Niketan is a place where the residents are mentally and spiritually cared for and given enough knowledge and understanding to keep oneself calm and strong in the face of discord or stress." The home, owned by T.J. Samson and dedicated to the project by the T.J. Samson Regional Healthcare Board of Directors, is on Glenview Drive. T.J. Samson Regional Healthcare CEO Bud Wethington said, "We are very appreciative and pleased to see this level of support so early in the campaign. It reflects this community's care for this important project. This gift from these five donors will have a lasting impact on the continuum of care for people in this region." The Love Makes a House a Home campaign will continue to build and strengthen relationships over the next three years to support the Hospice Home and the care of its residents. The Shanti Niketan Hospice Home will serve terminally ill patients under the care of the TJ Samson Hospice Program, with Dr. Bill Travis serving as the Medical Director. The T.J. Community Mission Foundation was established in 2015 to increase community engagement and advance philanthropy to support the region with exceptional healthcare programs, patient care and technology. The goal of the Foundation is to provide a bridge between medicine and compassion as the heartbeat of a healthy community. Foundation Board members include Bill Prather, Chair and Owen Lambert, Vice Chair; Mike Bryant, Emmylou Dickinson, Patrick Gaunce, Dale Guffey, Dr. Sunil Muppala, Henry Royse, Dr. Karen Small, Ben Quinn, William Twyman, Bud Wethington, Kirk Williams and Dr. Brent Wright For more information about TJ Community Mission Foundation or the Love Makes a House a Home Hospice Home campaign, contact Kim Lambert at klambert@tjcommunityfund.org or 270-651-4348.
