Volunteer Opportunities for Arts & Sciences Students – Writing & Legacy Support

These opportunities are especially well-suited for students studying English, psychology, communications, social work, and related fields. Roles include:

Direct Support Opportunities

• • Legacy Writing: Assisting patients in capturing life stories, memories, and reflections through guided writing sessions
  • Expressive Arts Support: Facilitating or supporting creative writing and journaling activities that promote emotional well-being
  • Companionship & Conversation: Engaging with individuals to help bring their stories to life through dialogue and storytelling

Indirect Support Opportunities

• • Program Development: Helping design writing-based legacy programs and support materials
  • Administrative Support: Assisting with organizing, scheduling, and preparing writing kits and outreach materials
  • Community Outreach: Supporting awareness efforts and representing our organization at events and tabling opportunities

These roles offer students a chance to make a lasting impact while developing skills in communication, empathy, program planning, and creative expression. We welcome both short-term and long-term involvement and are happy to coordinate around academic schedules.

If this opportunity aligns with your department’s goals, I’d be grateful if you could share it with your students. I’m also available to speak with classes or student groups to provide more details.

Thank you for your time and support in helping students connect their academic interests with meaningful service.
