Visiting Nurse Association & Hospice of the Florida Keys (VNA/Hospice) received a donation of over $ 1,600 from Pirates on the Water, the Key Largo chapter of the Parrot Heads in Paradise club.
VNA/Hospice was chosen this year by the Pirates on the Water as the recipients of their “Pit Stop Party” which was held in conjunction with the annual Parrot Heads Meeting of the Minds gathering in Key West.
“This year’s event raised over $ 1,600 for our charity and we were honored to be able to present these funds to VNA/Hospice to help fund home health and hospice care for our residents in need,” stated the club’s Log Keeper Sandy Singleton. “When we found out they provided over $ 300,000 in unfunded care to uninsured and underinsured residents last year we knew we needed to help.”
Pirates on the Water have been known for their creative, goodhearted and philanthropic fundraising since the club’s founding in 2006. Benefitting local charities with their annual events is one way they fulfill their mission of leaving everything a bit better than they found it.
