Have you ever felt called to sit with someone in their final chapter of life - not to fix, but simply to witness, honor, and love?

Three Oaks Hospice is seeking volunteers to become companions at the threshold, offering presence and kindness to patients nearing the end of life. This is sacred work: holding hands, listening to stories, sharing quiet moments. No one should die alone, and your friendship and presence can make a real difference!

No medical tasks are required - only your time and compassion.

No experience necessary!

You’ll receive full training and support from our team. Whether you're a natural listener, a spiritual seeker, or someone who believes no one should die alone, your heart is needed here.

In-home and facility visits available throughout St. Louis and surrounding areas. Our opportunities are very flexible!

Hospice care is designed for terminally ill individuals, providing comfort and peace to patients and families during the remaining weeks or months of life.
