WANT TO BE A DEVOTED AND DEDICATED VOLUNTEER FOR VETERANS???
WE NEED YOU!!!!
We have many veterans who live in nursing facilities or their own homes who want volunteers to visit with them.
Most hospice volunteers feel personally rewarded through their offering of time, energy and compassion when they see how much they are able to help patients and families.
Patient/family support includes companionship to the patient and respite for the caregiver that include friendly visits, writing letters, reading to patients, light housekeeping, running errands, or preparing a favorite meal or dessert for the patient/family.
While our office is in Killeen, we have many volunteer opportunities in Gatesville, Kempner, Temple, and surrounding areas.
Please call the Volunteer Coordinator at 512-535-8268 or click the "I want to help" button.
*Currently, we are in need of volunteers who can devote their time during week day hours.*
