Volunteer Memory Bear Makers Needed Throughout Northern Utah
Do you have sewing skills and a heart for helping others?
We are looking for talented volunteer sewers to create Memory Bears for families who have lost a loved one receiving hospice care.
A Memory Bear is lovingly handcrafted from a patient's clothing, transforming cherished garments into a keepsake that families can hold close for years to come. These special bears often become treasured reminders of a loved one's life, personality, and memory.
π Sew From Home
π Flexible Volunteer Opportunity
π Meaningful Way to Support Grieving Families
π Use Your Talents to Create Something Truly Special
How It Works:
π§Έ Our hospice team gathers the clothing items provided by the family.
π§΅ The clothing is given to a volunteer Memory Bear Maker.
π The volunteer carefully transforms the garments into a treasured keepsake bear.
π The finished Memory Bear is returned to the family as a lasting reminder of their loved one.
We are seeking volunteers who have:
β Sewing experience
β Access to their own sewing machine and tools
β Attention to detail
β Compassion and respect for the sentimental nature of this work
Every stitch tells a story. Every bear preserves a memory.
If you would like to use your sewing talents to provide comfort and healing to grieving families throughout Northern Utah, we'd love to hear from you.
