  • 2 people are interested

Are you a crafter, quilter, scrapbooker, or someone with a creative touch and a heart for giving? We’re looking for compassionate volunteers to help us honor the lives and memories of our hospice patients and their families.

At Sanctuary Hospice, we believe that every life tells a beautiful story-and with your help, we can preserve those stories in meaningful ways.

Volunteer Opportunity: Create & Donate Memory Items

We are seeking volunteers to create and donate memory items such as:

  • Memory bears made from loved ones’ clothing

  • Photo albums or memory scrapbooks

  • Decorative quilts or blankets

  • Custom artwork, handwritten letters, or poems

  • Keepsake boxes or ornaments

Each item brings comfort, joy, and a tangible way for families to hold onto cherished memories during difficult times.

Why Volunteer?
  • Make a personal and lasting impact in someone’s life

  • Use your creativity for a deeply meaningful cause

  • Be part of a compassionate community that supports patients and their loved ones

How to Get Involved:

No medical training is required-just your time, creativity, and a caring heart. We provide guidance and support for each project.

Interested? Contact the volunteer coordinator at MaggiePenick@SanctuaryHospiceOH.com

Together, we can make every memory matter.

Mission Statement

Patients and Families Come First The mission of Sanctuary Hospice is to understand and help guide our patients’ quest for a rewarding quality of life in their final days and to help their circle of family and friends support them in life and grieve for them in death. Sanctuary pledges to provide expert hospice care for the comfort and dignity of the terminally ill by addressing their individual physical, emotional and spiritual needs. Sanctuary Hospice serves as a resource to the community for end-of-life care and related issues and seeks to provide care for all appropriate patients and families who need hospice services regardless of ability to pay.

Description

Hospice Volunteers come from all walks of life, yet they all share a common desire-to enrich their own lives and the lives of others by giving generously of their time, energy and talents. Volunteers are an integral part of our hospice team. Once trained they may work in several areas: Administrative, Direct Patient Care Visitation for companionship and support, Bereavement support, Pet therapy, Music Therapy and many other Special Alternative Complementary services.
