We have numerous Veteran volunteer needs with female patient around the metroplex (Dallas and Collin County). These patients are terminal and looking for companionship, and many of these patients want a female that understands the work they encountered.

This would be a once a week opportunity, if you make a connection, and we want to make sure that a connection is made before we assign this to a volunteer. We want to make sure you do not have to travel far as well. This is a general request, but if you respond, we can try to place you with a veteran in your area.

We provide all volunteers with PPE regardless of the COVID restrictions, we no longer require vaccination proof, but we discuss your obligation to be safe for yourself and your patient.
