    Description

    Senior Citizen Companionship in King County

    Franciscan Hospice Volunteers provide compassionate presence for our patients, all of whom are within 6 months of dying.

    Sitting at the bedside, providing respite for caregivers, walking dogs, reading aloud or delivering audio books, singing songs, playing music, and listening to a patient talk about their life, are ways Hospice volunteers enrich the lives of our patients.

    If you are interested in bringing joy to others, we would love to hear from you.

    We are seeking volunteers throughout South King County.
