Veteran Volunteers Needed!

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Pioneer Valley Hospice & Palliative Care

Pioneer Valley Hospice & Palliative Care is recruiting Veteran-to-Veteran Hospice Volunteers!

We Honor Veterans empowers end-of life care partners to meet the unique needs of America's Veterans and their families.

We're looking for Veterans to join our dedicated hospice team as volunteers. Although every individual is unique, Veterans as a group tend to have special end-of-life needs. Many have experienced illness, isolation or trauma as a result of their service. Some never received recongition after returning home. The bond shared between Vet-to-Vet volunteers and hospice patients dissolves the barriers of stoicism and secrecy that are part of their cultured bond. We need you to help make a difference.

Call or email me now for more information on our opportunities.
