    About the Opportunity

    Beacon Hospice in Fall River is seeking a creative and community-minded volunteer to help assemble thoughtful goodie baskets that support a variety of initiatives. These baskets may be used for hospice patients and families, as well as staff appreciation efforts, community outreach, and special events.

    This in-person opportunity is perfect for someone who wants to make a meaningful impact behind the scenes in a fun, hands-on way.

    What You’ll Do

    • Organize and assemble goodie baskets for a variety of purposes, including patient support, Nurses Week, appreciation gifts, and “survival kits”
    • Arrange items in a creative, visually appealing, and thoughtful way
    • Sort and organize supplies and donations
    • Assist with special or seasonal projects as needed

    Time Commitment

    We are flexible and happy to work with your schedule! Volunteers can contribute:

    • Weekly (a few hours each week)
    • Biweekly
    • Once per month

    All volunteering must take place during office hours: Monday–Friday, 8 AM – 5 PM.

    Who We’re Looking For

    • Someone with a creative eye and attention to detail
    • A compassionate individual who wants to give back to their community
    • Those who prefer not to work directly inside an assisted living facility but still want to support an important mission
    • Dependable, organized, and comfortable working independently or with a small team

    Why Volunteer With Us

    • Support both hospice patients and the dedicated staff who care for them
    • Participate in a fun, creative, and rewarding volunteer experience
    • Flexible scheduling to fit your availability
    • Join a supportive, mission-driven team where your contributions are truly appreciated

    Impact

    Your creativity and time help bring comfort, appreciation, and joy to patients, families, and healthcare staff alike. Every basket you help create makes a meaningful difference.
