Join the Southern California Hospice Foundation this summer for our Summer of Service!
Summer of Service aims to serve our friends in hospice through a combination of direct service and community outreach.
Direct Service
Hospice volunteer:
- Donate your time and positivity
- Play card games
- Share stories
- Listen to music together
- Bring your therapy animal
Community Outreach:
Conducting an interview with SCHF after the volunteer service to speak about the experience.
- This is open to those who have volunteered in the past and to new volunteers!
Timeline
Phase one:
The volunteer will meet with SCHF’s volunteer coordinator to discuss what hospice is, and what hospice volunteering looks like. If the volunteer would like to continue with the Summer of Service project, he or she will be placed as a volunteer for a hospice patient.
Phase two:
The volunteering begins!
Whether it is one visit or one-hundred visits, we are thankful for your service to others. :)
Phase three:
At the end of the volunteer service, we invite all of our volunteers to come back to our office so we can interview them about their experience.
For more information feel free to reach out to the volunteer coordinator Victor Acosta at:

Description
Foundation Helper- Assisting SCHF events such as our Fundraisers, bereavement workshops, and outreach events. Direct Patient Volunteer- This is our hospice volunteer program and the opportunities are limitless when it comes to how you want to spend your time as a hospice volunteer. Share your music, watch a movie together, speak about current events, play card games together or share stories; the time spent as a hospice volunteer has a profound impact on the patient and their loved ones. Healing hearts Initiative- For volunteers who want to provide their special talent or service ( such as singing or bringing in a certified therapy animal) , SCHF creates a memorable experience by working hand in hand with the volunteer to tailor their talent/services for our patients. Angel Ambassador- Our Angel Ambassadors are our Hospice Volunteers who volunteer outside of the place of care; they deliver care packages, they help organize/coordinate our requests, and they host outings like going to a theme park or sporting event.
