We love our Volunteers! April is National Volunteer Month
East End Hospice volunteers are the heart and soul of our care. Volunteers donate thousands of hours of their time each year to improve the lives of patients and families with caring expertise and compassion. They tell us the rewards are unmatched.

We're forever grateful for their continued assistance and commitment. Volunteers support patients and families, provide respite to caregivers, and assist with bereavement services, Camp Good Grief, the EEH Thrift Shop, and fundraising activities. Every volunteer is vital to East End Hospice's mission to provide the right care in the right place at the right time - for every patient, every family, every time. 
Volunteer Spotlight: Paula Palumbo
"One of the first times I volunteered at the East End Hospice Kanas Center for Hospice Care, a patient told me he loved to sing, and he began to sing a song that was played on the night that he and his wife were married. I sang along with him, and we both really enjoyed the experience. A week later, when I was at the Center, he was still there but was now unresponsive. His family asked me if I was the one he had sung with that night. I said yes, and they told me how excited he was that I knew the words and sang along with him. So many experiences like that have enriched my life."
