Patient and Family Volunteers- Our volunteers have a huge impact on the lives of the families that we serve! They make visits in the home, spend much needed one on one time with siblings and patients, and develop relationships that last a lifetime. The families we serve have a child that has a life limiting illness.

Opportunities include:

  • Mentorship - Spend time with siblings of a patient. Do art projects, help with homework, play!
  • Support for parents: Help go through the mail, spend time with the children to give mom or dad a break.

Major skills needed: compassion, playfulness, flexibility.
