The Veteran-to-Veteran Volunteer Program pairs Veteran Volunteers with hospice patients who have also served in the U.S. Military. Veteran Volunteers have the unique ability to relate and connect with each patient thereby creating an environment of equal trust, companionship, and building a bond to help veterans in their final stage of life. The volunteer can assist patients in reminiscing and telling life stores.
One unique aspect of this opportunity is taking part in Veteran Pinning Ceremonies to recognize and honor those patients who served our country.
We need veteran volunteers in Des Moines, Clive, Urbandale, Ankeny, and the surrounding areas.
