    Description

    Veteran to Veteran Program

    Have you served in the Military or are currently serving? Then, you should be a part of our La Diferencia (the difference) Veteran to Veteran program. You will need to be available for 6 or more months in the San Antonio area for this type of volunteering. Many of our terminally ill veteran patients are comforted by those who have served. Military history connects you in no better way. If you want to walk alongside of someone in their journey who has served their country, please consider volunteering to visit a terminally ill Veteran. Call me at 210-516-5980. Thank your for your service. Janet S. Garza, LMSW, La Diferencia Hospice Volunteer Coordinator.

    If you are needing to meet some volunteer hour requirement we will provide you with the ability to learn and utilize best practices to serve your patients. We then, will also provide you with letters of recommendation, reference letters, etc., that will help you with future employment and/or education.

    We treat each other and our volunteers like family (Como Familiia), so you will enjoy your volunteer experience.

    Note: we follow CDC, CMS and CHAP guidelines for safety.

    As of August 11, 2023, volunteers are not required to be fully COVID vaccinated.
