Do YOU need volunteer hours for college and would like to make a difference????

With only a couple of hours a week, you can not only make a real difference in our patient and families' lives, but you can earn credit for school by volunteering. Many of our patients enjoy short visits consisting of reading, watching TV or delivering a craft. You will be assigned a patient who resides at a facility near your home.

Don't miss out on this opportunity! Please contact Kim Keefer, Volunteer Coordinator by email: kimkeefer@txhha.com, or my cell number is (281)818-0178 anytime.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!!
