A BIG thank you to all who attended our first Honks for Hugs event to honor Yolo Hospice staff.
Please join us for our next event honoring the staff of Alderson Convalescent Hospital. We are thrilled that the Woodland Police and Fire departments will be providing us an escort us.
“The smiles viewed from the vehicle made my heart swell to the point I needed to cheer vigorously through the moon-roof to get a better view of all you beautiful people. I’ll be on the lookout for future events.” ~ Cindy Jo Miller, Donor
“We were so glad to have the opportunity to physically provide a venue to thank the many people who are providing assistance during this crisis.” ~ Bob and Pat Gonzalez, Yolo Hospice Volunteers
“Caravan for hugs touched me deeply seeing our faithful front-line people waving in appreciation for our simple task of support. I cried, laughed and was proud to be a part of their recognition. It really is the little things that count.” ~ Alice Moore, Senior Peer Counselor Volunteer Coordinator

Yolo Hospice employees wave and laugh as volunteer Lynn Hilliard delivers her honks for hugs and displays her homemade signs of appreciation.
You can tie balloons to your car, bring fun noise makers, recruit your kids to make colorful signs and dress up however you like, or just keep it simple and give a few honks for everyone!
