🎉 Congratulations to Jim Bradley, HVHC Board President, on receiving this year's Jim Fernald Hospice Hero Award! 🎉

This award recognizes someone who has gone above and beyond in support of the Hospice Regatta of Maine and/or Hospice Volunteers of Hancock County—and Jim has certainly done that for both.

As Chair of the Hospice Regatta Committee for the past four years, Jim's leadership has helped grow the Regatta from raising $32,287 in 2023 to an incredible $58,875 in 2026!

Beyond the Regatta, Jim has generously shared his time, talents, and expertise to help strengthen and grow our organization. His unwavering commitment to our mission has helped ensure we can continue serving individuals and families in our community during some of life's most vulnerable moments. Jim has served as our Board President for the past several years and is now in his eighth year on our Board of Directors.

Jim leads with enthusiasm, generosity, and a genuine passion for helping others. We are incredibly grateful for everything he does for Hospice Volunteers of Hancock County.

A special thank you to his team at Penobscot Financial Advisors for being there to celebrate this well-deserved recognition!

💙 Please join us in congratulating Jim Bradley on receiving the 2026 Jim Fernald Hospice Hero Award!
