Quick answer
Hospice and palliative care charities sometimes use custom wristbands as part of a community fundraising campaign, giving supporters a simple, respectful way to show their support for the cause.
Hospice charities rely on ongoing community goodwill, and a wristband gives supporters something tangible to wear in support of a cause close to many families' hearts.
Why wristbands work for hospice fundraising
A wristband gives supporters something quiet and simple to wear, extending a hospice charity's visibility in the community well beyond a single donation.
How community groups raise awareness
Local groups, schools and workplaces can support a hospice charity's campaign by selling or distributing wristbands alongside their own fundraising events.
