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 unparalleled.

We're forever grateful for their continued support and commitment. Volunteers support patients and families, make pet or music visits 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.
