Internal Revenue Service filings show that the Hospice Care Foundation during the past four years spent just 3 percent of its budget on building a hospice home in Missoula.

At least two foundation board members have resigned in the last month, citing a failure of the nonprofit to disperse funds.

Edward Guay on June 28 wrote a resignation letter reminding the nonprofit that nonprofits are supposed to raise funds to help others, not drain old donations to fund operations.

Chief operating officer Kevi Berger says that it plans to delay work on the hospice home but is close to giving out grants to hospice providers.
