Providence Hospice

“My life has been profoundly enriched
by my experience as a hospice volunteer:
by the amazing people I’ve met,
by the connections we’ve shared,
and by the personal growth I’ve experienced
through this work.
I truly receive so much more than I give.”

-Providence Hospice of Seattle volunteer
