Think of how good it makes you feel to have a clean house! As our hospice patients health declines, it becomes more difficult for them to take care of the little things that they could once do. Help ease someone's burden by doing light housekeeping for them. Faith Hospice is looking for volunteers who are available to assist patients in the community with simple chores around their homes. This could include basic cleaning, washing dishes, doing laundry, or even fixing lunch. Volunteers would be scheduled to visit one person on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, helping them to keep their homes clean and organized.

Faith Hospice is looking for a volunteer who can lead a choir. We are seeking a special musical person, who would direct a grief choir for individuals, who are grieving the loss of a loved one. The project is overseen by our Bereavement Director, Janet Jaymin. According to Janet "as a society we must continue to offer outlets for individuals to grieve well" and "music has significant therapeutic value, that offers another means of discovering one’s voice while grieving." If you have a passion for music and helping others, please contact our Volunteer Department at 616-356-4859 or email at volunteers@faithhospicecare.org. Thank you.

At Faith Hospice, we are grateful to those who have served our country. Our Vet-to-Vet volunteer program will pair our veteran patients with a volunteer who may have a better understanding of what the veteran has experienced. Our veteran patients seem to enjoy talking about their time they served in the military and they seem to relate well with other veterans. Please help us serve our veterans and give them respect they deserve in their final months and days. No experience needed. Contact us for more information or to talk to a current volunteer veteran and how he relates to our veteran patients. Schedules are very flexible and we will work around your busy schedules! Please call Cheryl at 616.356.4859 or email volunteers@faithhospicecare.org You may find our volunteer application by going to www.faithhospicecare.org and following the Volunteer link. Thank you!
