My first volunteer experience with patients on hospice. I enjoyed being given the chance to provide companionship for the patients. Staff was very friendly and supportive.

I visited multiple patients that were located inpatient and outpatient. I provided companionship to the patients and helped them with things such as chores, emotional support, and some basic needs. I enjoyed being able to connect with the patients and provide them with company.

I met with residents and provided them with companionship. It is always delightful to be given the chance to help residents with chores, small tasks, or even just socializing. I am always honored to be given the chance to talk to the residents and listen to their stories and advice.

I felt so welcomed by Backpack Beginnings. This experience has motivated me to continue to give back to the community, especially in times of need when people are being denied access to basic needs like food. Both the staff of Backpack Beginnings and the team I attended the catalyst with was amazing. This experience emphasized what a team that is determined to come together can accomplish, even for a bigger cause.

Introduction to volunteering with Cardinal Hospice Care. The staff was very welcoming, and I was very excited to be serving with Cardinal Hospice Care.

Volunteered here for the bronze leadership experience. I truly enjoyed giving back to the community by providing fresh food.

I loved being able to help in my community especially with an organization like New Arrivals which takes the initiative to help out refugees from other countries.
