Hospice Volunteer-sew bears for bereaved families

Use your talents and passion to sew to improving the quality of life for others! Hackensack Meridian Hospice provides Memory Bears to family members as part of our bereavement services. Patients’ clothing such as a favorite shirt is transformed into a comforting family keepsake. Families can literally hold onto cherished memories of their loved one in the form of a huggable Memory Bear or Pillow.

Experienced seamstresses with at least an intermediate skill level are needed to create memory projects. HMH Hospice provides the pattern and supplies. We will make all arrangements to drop off supplies and pick up projects. All we need from you is your time and talent.
