Kindred Hospice is looking for volunteers who would make home-sewn bears to help ease the loss after the death of a patient. The Memory Bears are sewn from the clothing of a patient (a favorite shirt, dress, uniform, etc.). The Memory Bears create a lasting keepsake and offer comfort to the family (such as a child who feels alone after the loss of a parent, grandparent or sibling).
The clothing is provided by the family and the pattern, stuffing and other materials will be provided by Kindred Hospice.
Kindred Hospice office is located at 4500 Kruse Way, Suite 100, Lake Oswego, OR 97035
