“We are thrilled to once again host such a unique event alongside the Rhode Island International Sailing Association,” said Charles P. Iacono, Vice President of Philanthropy with HHCRI. “Not only is the event a fun way for the community to show off their sailing skills, but it is also terrific way for us bring more awareness and resources to help expand our hospice and palliative care across the region.”
