Craft volunteer for Veteran patients

We are currently looking for volunteers to make lap blankets in patriotic colors for our patients who are Veterans. Lap blankets can be sewn, quilted, crocheted or knitted. No certain pattern, so you can be creative! If you need help covering the cost of the material, please let us know ahead of time as we may be able to help.

What is hospice? Hospice is a specialized type of care designed to provide support to those facing a life-limiting illness, their families and their caregivers. Hospice care addressed the patient's physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs. The goal is to raise the patient's quality of life in a humane and compassionate way so they may live each day pain-free, with as much comfort and dignity as possible.
