Friends Needed for Hospice Patients

Unity Hospice & Palliative Care Chicagoland - Volunteer Program

Are you looking to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others? Do you have a compassionate heart and would like to give back to your community? Then we invite you to join the Unity Hospice Volunteer Team, where you can bring comfort and peace to those in need. We are looking for volunteers in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.

Every moment matters and our volunteers play a vital role in providing compassionate care and emotional support to our patients and their families. Whether it's offering a listening ear, reading a book or sharing a caring smile while holding their hands, your presence can make a world of difference.

If visits aren't for you, we can also use Administrative support at the office or you can become a Craft volunteer, where you can make cards, lap blankets, fidget mats and many other things that can help make our patients feel special

Every act of kindness can provide so much comfort and joy. If you're ready to make a meaningful difference we'd love to hear from you. Together we can bring comfort, dignity, and love to those who need it the most. Thank you for considering Unity Hospice as your place to volunteer.

No experience is required, we provide training and support to ensure that you feel confident and prepared. A background check, Tb & drug test (for drugs not legal in IL) are provided as well.
