When our volunteer Jim was asked what he would say to someone who was considering volunteering, he said, “I’d say congratulations for even thinking about it. It is very fulfilling and will be one of the best things you have ever done. The fact that you are thinking about it means you have empathy, and you already care. I couldn’t recommend it more; it'll change your life.” Volunteering at Cooley Dickinson VNA & Hospice offers a fulfilling opportunity to be a part of something greater—enhancing your mental and physical well-being while making a lasting difference in your community. Embrace this chance to change lives, starting with your own, and discover the joy that comes from giving back.

This Thursday! Learn more about Hospice, Home Care, and Palliative Care services.
We have started our Hospice Informational Series again, this time presenting at the Easthampton Council on Aging and Enrichment Center on Thursday, November 7, at 10 am. Understanding home health care can be challenging and sometimes daunting. We hope to educate our community about home health services, end-of-life care, and bereavement support so they can make the right choices for their care when the time comes.

Volunteering, at its core, is a generous act that not only uplifts those in need but also enriches the lives of those who give their time and compassion. Take, for instance, Jim, a dedicated hospice volunteer. Jim exemplifies the spirit of volunteerism as he visits patients in their homes, offering a listening ear, a helping hand, or simply a comforting presence during their most vulnerable moments. His philosophy shines through as he reflects, “Doing something for someone else adds meaning to my life. It makes life worthwhile. You’ll get more kisses than kicks when you help others, so plant that garden, and watch it grow by enabling positive things to happen in your life.” Jim’s heartfelt commitment serves as a poignant reminder that the act of giving not only cultivates joy and connection but also sows the seeds for a more compassionate world. If you’re looking to make a meaningful impact, consider joining Jim and many others in this rewarding journey of volunteering at our organization.
