Share your unique gifts and talents...become a Valley Hospice volunteer Each and every one of us has a special talent or gift to share with someone who is in need. Whatever your talent or gift, Valley Hospice needs volunteers.
The U.S. hospice movement was founded by volunteers. Valley Hospice depends on our volunteers and appreciates the commitment they have made to our patients, families and our community. Their caring hands are appreciated in our patients’ homes, our offices, and our care centers. Without the efforts of our volunteers Valley Hospice could not continue its important work.
Volunteers are valuable members of the Valley Hospice team. Wherever you choose to volunteer at Valley Hospice, there’s a place for you... Whether you want to work directly with patients and families or in another role, you can make a big difference in someone’s life, including your own.
