Are you interested in becoming a volunteer for<br />

<strong>Aspirus</strong> Comfort Care and Hospice Services? We are<br />

looking for bighearted individuals who are willing to<br />

go the extra mile for people with terminal illness and<br />

their family members.<br />

When you become a volunteer, you help to improve the<br />

quality of life for our patients and families. <strong>Aspirus</strong> Angels<br />

share with others their capacity for giving and their helping<br />

spirit.<br />

Based upon your interests, some of the activities you could<br />

take part in as an <strong>Aspirus</strong> Angel include: office work,<br />

visiting with patients, helping with housework, walking with<br />

patients, reading and playing games, bereavement calling<br />

from your own home, music, quilting, gardening, cooking,<br />

baking – the possibilities are endless! We have volunteer<br />

opportunities for you that directly or indirectly benefit our<br />

patients.<br />

<strong>Aspirus</strong> Comfort Care and Hospice Services<br />

and Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum<br />

present this special time for children, teens,<br />

and families coping with the death of a loved<br />

one. We will create a memorial candleholder<br />

using various art supplies. Bring in a photo,<br />

small memento or knickknack of a loved one<br />

to incorporate into the candleholder.<br />

<strong>Aspirus</strong> Comfort Care and Hospice Services.<br />
