About Nathan Adelson Hospice Foundation
Nathan Adelson Hospice Foundation Inc has centered its giving on one mission since 1984: helping Nathan Adelson Hospice deliver quality, compassionate end-of-life and palliative care in Southern Nevada regardless of insurance status or ability to pay. The clearest signal in the recent record is the scale of support for hospice operations itself, with multimillion-dollar grants in 2023, 2024, and 2025 to Nathan Adelson Hospice in Las Vegas. That pattern shows a funder built around sustaining core care delivery rather than scattering gifts across unrelated causes. The foundation also supports services that extend the hospice experience beyond bedside care. Its recent grants include funding for bereavement and counseling programs at Center for Compassionate Care, tying the organization’s giving to family support after loss. Across the data, the foundation’s role is closely aligned with the programs it was established to support: hospice care, palliative care, bereavement support, and related direct services for patients, caregivers, and families in Southern Nevada.
What Nathan Adelson Hospice Foundation Funds
Hospice care is the foundation’s largest visible priority. It gave $2,147,199 in 2025, $2,296,432 in 2024, and $2,132,774 in 2023 to Nathan Adelson Hospice for support hospice programs. That repeated support points to operating-strength funding for the organization’s core care mission. Bereavement support is another clear theme. In 2024, the foundation granted $42,407 to Center for Compassionate Care to support bereavement and counseling programs, and it made a similar grant of $26,640 in 2023 for the same purpose. Those awards show attention to grief support after a patient’s death. The foundation’s broader program areas also include palliative care, complementary therapies, emergency family assistance, meal delivery, pet therapy, and Camp Erin for children’s grief support, all within its direct-service focus.
How Nathan Adelson Hospice Foundation Gives
Grant size is highly uneven. The typical award profile is p25 of $38,465, median of $1,087,590, and p75 of $2,173,688, which reflects a mix of very large operating grants and smaller program grants. The recent record also shows repeated support over multiple years rather than one-time-only giving: Nathan Adelson Hospice appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and Center for Compassionate Care appears in 2023 and 2024. The foundation funds programmatic and service-delivery work, and it does not fund individuals. The available record also shows no program-related investments.
