Light Up a Life 2026
For help processing your credit card or adding names, please call Hospice SLO County at (805) 544-2266.
Since 1984, Light Up a Life has been a cherished tradition for our community — a time to come together, light a candle, and remember those we hold close to our hearts.
Join us for music, words of comfort, a reading of names, and to light a candle as we honor loved ones and beloved pets, who are no longer with us, but never forgotten.
The lantern, our symbol for this event, represents the light that guides us through life's darker moments, and the enduring illumination of love and remembrance.
For a donation of $25 or more, your loved one's or pet's name will be read in remembrance at the ceremony. Scholarships are available if the donation is a hardship. Please call our office for information (805) 544-2266.
All proceeds support Hospice SLO County's direct services.
LIGHT UP A LIFE: Tuesday, December 1, 6-8 PM, Mission San Luis Obispo, 751 Palm St, San Luis Obispo
This indoor/outdoor ceremony is free to attend: in-person, live-streamed, and recorded.
*If you've joined us in the past for Paws to Remember, we're glad to welcome you. Your beloved pets are remembered right alongside loved ones at Light Up a Life.
