Many hospice patients love listening to soothing live music. If you play an instrument, consider becoming a music volunteer. As a music volunteer, you’ll bring your instrument with you when you’re visiting patients. You can play some of your favorite songs for the patient, and you can also take some requests from the patient. Patients will love getting to relax and listen to their own private concert.

Do you want to literally deliver some joy in the lives of hospice patients and their families? Join the Good Samaritan Society Hospice to volunteer your time picking up (from the Hospice office or a participating store) and delivering (to patient’s homes) small gifts and snacks. Deliver the smiles! Just a once-a-month driving shift helps the Good Samaritan Society deliver some cheer to homebound or nursing home patients. For some of our clients, our drivers may be the only friendly face they'll see all day, so all of our volunteers make a huge impact on the lives of the people they visit. We deliver to the Albuquerque area. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Kathlyn Williams at Kathlyn.williams@good-sam.com. Drivers must be at least 18 years old, and have a current driver's license and valid auto insurance. You will have training, be drug screened and fingerprinted. Please note: we are not able to fulfill court-mandated restitution obligations. We cannot pay for gas/mileage.
