    Description

    Bi-lingual Volunteers Needed to Assist in Hospice

    We live in a melting pot country that embraces people from several different cultures. Understanding culture and being responsive to it often is overlooked at end of life. We know that language is an important part of a person's life and identity and being able to communicate in the language you grew up speaking is critically important for those at end of life and in hospice.

    Hospice Promise celebrates diversity and is looking for volunteers who fluently speak languages other than English. We will guide you through training, supervision, and lots of support as volunteers navigate the important work of being a hospice volunteer.

    We serve all of Maricopa County.
