Teen Volunteering
Making a difference.
Our teen volunteers visit patients for two hours each week and brighten their days with conversation, reading, playing games, listening to music, or sharing other activities of mutual interest.
Volunteering with Hospice of the Valley can even be a springboard to a career in healthcare and serving others.
