    Description

    The St. Cloud VA Health Care System is dedicated to providing exceptional health care to our service men and women, join our team as a volunteer to honor our Nation’s Veterans today! Volunteers are needed for various assignments throughout the health care system and we need your help to meet a growing demand.

    We currently have volunteer openings in nearly every area of the campus. Volunteers are needed for escorting patients to and from their appointments, assisting in areas such as the Canteen with stocking and sanitizing surfaces, as well as assisting Veterans while they use the Pharmacy kiosk to request prescription refills. We also have a continued need for Volunteer Drivers and Ambassadors. Volunteer drivers are the connection between Veterans and the care they so greatly deserve. Access to care can be a tremendous barrier for Veterans, especially those residing in rural areas of the state. Volunteer drivers not only fulfill this great need, but they also have the opportunity to visit and interact with our Nation's Heroes!

    Volunteer Ambassadors are also needed to assist Veterans with way-finding and navigating their visit while on campus. Ambassadors are often the first friendly face Veterans encounter upon arriving on campus and they play a vital role in providing exemplary customer service.

    We are looking for caring volunteers to spend one-on-one time with our Veterans through recreational activities such as games, cards, puzzles, and conversation. These moments of connection mean so much and help brighten the day for those who have served our country. If you enjoy spending time with others and want to make a meaningful difference, we'd love to have you join us!

    The Center for Development and Civic Engagement, formerly known as Voluntary Service, offers flexible scheduling, assignment specific training, and a commitment to excellence for all customers. Please call the Center for Development and Civic Engagement office at 320.255.6365 or email us at vhastcvavsstaff@va.gov for more information.
