Are you a veteran looking for a meaningful way to give back? Join us in honoring those who served by volunteering with Gentiva Hospice.

Many veterans in hospice care find comfort in the companionship of fellow service members-someone who understands their journey.

Whether its sharing stories,playing a game, reading aloud, or simply sitting together in quiet camaraderie, your presence can make all the difference. Your time,compassion,and shared experiences can bring peace and connection in their final chapter.

No medical experience is needed! Volunteers DO NOT perform any clinical duties. We service the High Desert area from Apple Valley, Barstow, Pinion Hills, Wrightwood, Big Bear, Arrowhead and everything in between.

Join our Veteran -to- Veteran Volunteer Program today.
