Description
Did you hate history in high school because it was all dates and memorization? But now you enjoy a good documentary about history? Meet hospice patients who can give you firsthand accounts of their lives and how they made a difference, while you are making a difference in their lives.
Give the gift of time and compassion. Hospice volunteers provide companionship to patients and caregivers, offering comfort through conversation, shared activities, or quiet presence. No experience necessary only a willingness to care. Your support ensures no one's journey is taken alone. Make a difference, one visit at a time.
This opportunity can also be done from home and in our office in different capacities.
