Description

Do you enjoy making crafts? Can you crochet and/or knit? Turn your hobby into healing by becoming a craft volunteer...all from the comfort of your own home! Heartland Hospice needs more talented craft volunteers to donate items that will bring comfort to patients facing life-limiting illnesses.

The sky's the limit when it comes to what will bring a smile to a patient's face, but some suggestions include: crocheted lap blankets/shawls/slippers, fleece blankets, memory bears, seasonal items, veterans appreciation items, stuffed animals (teddy bears) or pillows and any other craft item that will brighten a patient's room. Items can be dropped off at Heartlands's business office in Milwaukee.

This is your chance to make a BIG difference without even leaving your doorstep! Please contact Volunteer Coordinator Gypsi (414-944-2000); cheryl.kernats@heartlandhospice.com) if you're interested in donating handmade gifts of comfort to our hospice patients. We're waiting to hear from you!
