2023 Spring Volunteer Training

Interested in becoming a volunteer?  Hospice & Palliative Care of the Piedmont is seeking volunteers.

 

Volunteers are needed in many areas:  patient sitting, working in the Hospice House, running errands, selling, and sorting donations, repair work, clerical, fundraising and many other exciting opportunities that provide services to patients and families with advanced illness. Becoming a hospice volunteer is similar to helping a neighbor in need.

 

Hospice is excited to have two thrift stores operated by paid staff and volunteers with locations in Greenwood and Abbeville. Training to volunteer at the Hospice Store is conducted on site where all other requires training sessions.

 

Volunteer Training will be held May 2nd and 3rd from 9 AM – 3 PM at the Hospice Volunteer Community Center, 217 North Creek Blvd, Greenwood, SC.  Evening date and time to be arranged upon request.

 

To sign up for training or for more information, contact Susan Harris, Director of Volunteers at 864.229.8461.
