We are looking for compassionate volunteers to visit patients that are nearing end of life in/around Milwaukee, WI. Your role as a volunteer would be to spend an hour each week with someone who is looking for more socialization and/or support. You may find yourself listening to life stories, watching movies together, playing cards, or simply providing a supportive presence. Please consider helping your neighbors that are in need at this often lonely time.

No prior experience needed!
