Volunteer needed in South King County to give haircuts to patients on hospice. Help them continue to look their best, even when it's too difficult for them to go on outings to the barber shop or salon. In home, bring your own supplies, be ready to hear some interesting life stories, be present for companionship, and ease the load for a busy care giver.
Must be licensed hairdresser/beautician please.
