Volunteer OpportunitiesVolunteers are a vital part of the fabric of our organization. They come to us from diverse backgrounds and fill a variety of needs. Some work directly with patients; others answer phones, assist with clerical duties, speak in the community, take photos, deliver medical supplies to patients, help with data entry, and perform a multitude of other tasks to support the agency.
