Music is the universal language. It speaks fluently to all walks of life. In this way we can celebrate the ways we are all brought together through the power of something so simple and human - music. You can play an instrument, sing, or bring recorded music with you!

Hospice volunteers receive special training to provide support to hospice patients and their families at end of life. Serious inquiries only: must be able to pass a drug screen, background check, TB test, and complete orientation. Contact CJ Pharr, Volunteer Coordinator, for more information and to get started on your journey: 719-268-2582 or cesslie.ladehoffpharr@hcahealthcare.com
