About this Opportunity
Get out of the heat and volunteer! What better way than to open your heart to those who are grieving? We are looking for caring people to make 10-15 Bereavement calls on a monthly basis from your own home to check in with those who have recently lost a loved one on hospice services with Samaritan.
Samaritan is a nonprofit, non-sectarian agency caring for people suffering from serious, progressive illness and grief.
No computer skills required. No experience necessary!
Please note: All who have experienced the loss of a significant family member or friend must wait one year from date of loss to begin the volunteer process.
Qualifications/Requirements:
- Minimum Age: 18
- One-year commitment
- Volunteer Orientation and Training
- Ongoing: Annual Education
- Calls may be made from your home or from our Mt Laurel office.
- Materials must be picked up monthly from our office.
We ask that all volunteers bring the following qualities to their work at Samaritan: good communication and listening skills, a non-judgmental attitude, reliability, flexibility, and compassion.
Thank you for considering spending your valuable time with Samaritan and we look forward to hearing from you!
