Providing Goody bags for the Terminally ill/Palliative Care patients provides hope from our volunteer match community. You can purchase lunch bags at a grocery store. Decorate them as you wish and purchase individually wrapped items such as: soft fruit snacks, rice crispy treats, soft granola bars, soft/hard candies, craft items, deck of cards, nail polish and maybe a pair of socks if you wish. You can add a little note to say, "Wishing you a good day." You can make 30 or 300, whatever you would like to make. This is a great individual volunteer event or this can also be a great team builder for co-workers to get together. You can start this event whenever you wish!
For the patient's love ones who are taking care of these patients (24/7), our volunteer match community can also provide goody bags of hope and you can let them know in a note with good thoughts for their day along with the same types of snacks and items. If you have any questions on what kind of things for purchase for these goody bags, please email: janet.garza@ladiferenciahospice.com.
Once you have finished these bags you would either drop them off at our office. If you need verification of your volunteer hours our organization will provide that through letter or signature. Thank you so much for your consideration and making the day of a terminally ill patient and their love ones. You truly provide hope through your kindness to patients and their families.
