We have a single patient who need help covering times when her caregiver cannot be there. This is a unique situation and there is a lot of time that needs to be covered. As a result, not all of this time needs to be covered by one person. We are happy to have several people fill different time slots in order to fill this need.
- Monday, August 23
- 10:30 AM to 5:30 PM
- Monday, August, 30
- 6:30 AM to 5:30 PM
- Wednesday, September 8
- 6:00 AM to 1:00 PM
- Monday, September 20
- 7:30 AM to 1:30 PM
- Monday, September 27
- 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM
- Monday, October 4
- 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM
Whatever time you can give is great. However we have to split these time slots up to fill the need is what we will do. If you can only volunteer in the afternoon, great! We will get someone else for the morning.
