ORGANIZATION: Lily Home and Hospice

Hairstylists & Barbers - Share your talents and skills by becoming a hospice volunteer!

We all know the saying, "when you look good, you feel good" and for those on hospice, getting a fresh haircut and style can be a tremendous boost to one's self-image and overall outlook. By giving them a sense of beauty and dignity, a volunteer hairstylist or barber can help patients feel more like themselves again.

Most hospice patients are unable to leave their homes, so getting a haircut for the first time in a long time can help them feel wonderful and pampered. At Lily Hospice, we care for our patients in the comfort of their own home. For some, home might be a private residence, while others might reside in an assisted living or nursing home/health center setting. Volunteer hairstylists and barbers are needed throughout Ozaukee County to help us meet this occasional specialized request.

Our commitment to you:

  • Flexible schedule at a location that is convenient for you
  • Your services will be provided to our patients at no charge
  • Accessible staff support
  • Ongoing guidance to ensure that you are comfortable in your role

If you are interested in becoming a Lily Hospice volunteer, we would love to hear from you!
