Keuka Comfort Care Home

Keuka Comfort Care Home KCCH provides free, compassionate end of life care in a homelike setting.to terminally ill residents

Conceived of need and compassion, born and nurtured by six caring local couples, and built by a most generous community, the Keuka Comfort Care Home opened its arms in September of 2007 to area families in need of terminal care for a loved one. This state-of-the-art terminal care facility was drafted and adapted from borrowed plans, erected entirely by volunteers, and constructed at roughly one-th

ird of budget due to an unusually large number of in-kind donations from local contractors and suppliers. After nine months of extraordinary communal efforts, the Keuka Comfort Care Home was ready to accept its first residents on its bucolic hillside overlooking Keuka Lake. The need for a local comfort care facility was realized when a common friend of local residents decided it was unacceptable for Yates county-area residents to travel long distances to visit terminally ill loved ones. They came together to initiate a change, and 2 years later the Keuka Comfort Care Home is in operation. KCCH has already proven to be a valuable asset to our community. We will forever be grateful for the effort of the start-up committee, comprised of Bill & Rosalie McEvily, Bill & Barb Schrouder, Rick & Jean Thompson, Bill & Nancy Kays, Tom & Betty Rakovan, Bob & Margo Shaw.

2 years ago we held a Shoe Drive with astounding success. We were hesitant to repeat this, as so many generous community members cleaned out their closets to help us. We didn't think that another shoe drive would be as successful. Well, the community has spoken and you are ready to unclutter again!!!
Starting July 1st and running through August, we will again be collecting new and gently used shoe donations. Shoes are picked up by our partner company, weighed, and we then receive a payout based on how many pounds of shoes we collect. Your shoes are then sent overseas to developing countries, benefiting their new owners in many ways and helping to keep shoes out of landfills! A win-win for everyone involved!
All types and sizes of shoes (in good, clean, wearable condition) are accepted. This includes men's, women's, children, and baby sneakers, boots, slippers, heels, cleats, and more! We cannot accept skates of any kind.
You are welcome to bring your donations to us at KCCH starting on July 1st. Other drop off locations will be announced when the event is closer so we do not overwhelm our generous partners before it is time.
Last time we collected 3360 pairs of shoes. Can we beat that number this year??

It is Volunteer Appreciation Week!!
Here at KCCH, we appreciate our volunteers every day, but would like to take the time to pause and reflect on how grateful we are for our many volunteers. We have volunteers for every job imaginable, including lawn mowing, fundraising, hands on care, and even organization!
We simply could not function without our family of volunteers.
If you see any of the KCCH volunteers, current or former, be sure to thank them for their kindness and dedication!
