Paulie Palooza was created by Paul Correia in 2012 to honor the memory of his father, who passed away while on Gulfside Hospice’s services. Paulie Palooza has grown to become its own full-day fundraising event. Since 2012, the Paulie Palooza festival has raised more than $96,000 to benefit Gulfside Hospice, which provides patient care and bereavement services to more than 650 patients and families every day in our local community.
