  • Make a Difference at Hospice of Cleveland Clinic

    Are you looking for a profound and deeply rewarding volunteer experience? Make a difference at the most intimate time of a person's life--the end. Our hope at Cleveland Clinic Hospice at Home is that no one dies alone.

    Our goal is to train ordinary people with a heart for service and compassion for others to give an extraordinary gift to those facing end of life. This may be simply being present with the patient who is dying without a care giver, friend, or family member or providing support to family members who need a break from the bedside of their loved one. In the silence, you may choose to pray, write, read, play a musical instrument, or do any number of respectful activities. You will be a part of an amazing group of volunteers who complete trainings that will prepare you for this life changing experience.

  • Volunteers Needed for Geauga Spring Clean-Up Days

    The Department of Aging needs your help! We would like to invite you and your friends to join us and volunteer during the 2014 Geauga Spring Clean-Up Days for Seniors! This worthwhile event begins April 5, 2014.

    Many of our seniors can no longer rake their yards, weed flower beds, clean up yard debris, or wash windows. This is where you, as a volunteer, can truly make a difference. By volunteering just a few hours of your time, you can help a senior citizen remain independent and allow them to live in a safe, clean environment.
