Christmas Artisan Market nets $3,500 for Huron Shores Hospice

Admission proceeds from the Handmade Christmas Artisan Market, held Nov. 17-19, resulted in a donation of $3,560 to Huron Shores Hospice.

The donation was made Wednesday afternoon, by Nicole Rae Ireland of Stilara.

“We extend our deepest gratitude to Nicole for organizing the Handmade Christmas Artisan Market and donating the admission proceeds to the hospice,” said executive director Cathy Herbert. “We also thank all those who attended the event.

“Your support goes beyond admission proceeds; it's a beacon of compassion, lighting the way for our residents and their families. Nicole’s kindness truly makes a difference in creating moments that matter for those in our care. Thank you for being the heart of our mission."
