As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to learn from one another, to grow, and to become stronger.
See below to access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and to explore our growing directory of both COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
Premier Hospice is currently looking for compassionate, caring volunteers to join their 11th Hour Program. Unfortunately, not everyone goes to their death bed surrounded by loved ones. 11th Hour Volunteers provide companionship and a supportive presence to hospice patients during their last 24-36 hours of life.
Volunteers are required to complete a 8 hour training program specific to death & dying to prepare them for their journey as an 11th Hour Volunteer.
11th Hour Volunteers receive mileage reimbursement for all 11th Hour patient visits!
