I've been a volunteer with Odyssey Hospice for 4 years after finding this local organization on VolunteerMatch. I like that there are various volunteer opportunities which all allow enough flexibility to make volunteering feel like an easy commitment. I am able to be involved & give back to the community in a way that fits my schedule. I've been able to witness the staff and their commitment to Odyssey's mission, and they go above and beyond to provide the utmost quality care. It's an honor to be associated with such a devoted organization.
