In honor of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, and as an ode to his family’s personal experience, Vineyard photographer Michael Blanchard donated $5,000 to Hospice & Palliative Care of Martha’s Vineyard (HPCMV). The proceeds come from Blanchard’s 2026 “Inspirational Calendar for the Annual Appeal,” which is a dedication to the memory of his parents, who both received hospice or palliative services at the end of their lives.
