Meaningful Sewing and Crochet Projects for Hospice Patients

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Phoenix Home Care and Hospice

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 1 person is interested

Phoenix Hospice is seeking volunteers who can:

  • Sew fidget blankets or crochet fidget toys for patients with dementia. Fidget blankets and toys help people with dementia engage in activities, leading to increased relaxation.
  • Sew memory pillows and teddy bears using the shirts patients used to wear. These gifts are tremendously meaningful for their loved ones.
We provide supplies, and you can complete these projects from home at your own pace. If you are interested, please click on "I want to help".
