We need passionate volunteers to provide companionship to hospice patients in the Buda/Kyle area. Visit with patients in their private home, or in a long-term care setting such as assisted living and memory care communities.

Make your own schedule based on the time you have to share.

Why volunteer ?

  • Volunteering is a unique opportunity to improve someone’s quality of life as they continue to live as fully and comfortable as possible.
  • By volunteering you'll be helping a great cause. Even giving a couple of hours a month can help to support our hospice team and ensure that we are able to continue providing quality care to our patients and their families.
  • Express gratitude for the help received during you loved ones illness.
  • You’re giving back, and you’re helping others. Helping others promotes satisfaction and self-worth. Plus, it’s good for your health-mind, body, and spirit.
  • Volunteering allows you to showcase talents and skills such as singing or playing and instrument to those who may not have the ability to get out any longer.

Volunteers connect with our patients with activities such as reading together, sharing memories, playing games, looking through photo albums, fun crafts, enjoying music, or simply sitting outside and appreciating nature our patients. Through these meaningful interactions our patients are given the gift of true friendship. Something as simple as holding a hand or listening creates such a powerful impact for our beloved patients as they continue their journey with a life limiting illness.

Please note that all volunteers must be at least 18 years old.
