Volunteer: Veteran Volunteers Needed!

VETERAN TO VETERAN COMPANION VOLUNTEER:

 We are looking for Veterans who interested in providing companionship to our Veteran hospice patients. For many Veterans, the opportunity to share their stories can be fulfilling and often contributes a sense of fellowship, life closure and peace. If the volunteer visiting is a Veteran, the sharing can be all that more powerful. Veterans may want to share their stories with someone who understands what they went through. They feel connected by hearing other Veteran stories. They gain validation and understanding in a very special way from another Veteran.

 If you feel compelled to be of service to a fellow Veteran in this way, please contact our volunteer coordinators for more information. You can do so by calling 920-338-1111.
