***********Looking for Veterans to Volunteer*******
Hello!
Caris Healthcare provides end of life care. Our patients live in homes, assistant living and nursing facilities. We have a program called "We Honor Veterans." were we try to place volunteers who are veterans with our patients who are veterans. We know that veterans have special needs that only another veteran can understand.
I would love to come talk about the opportunity to become a volunteer to be assigned to a veteran who is our patient.
I look forward to hearing back from you. Please feel free to email or call my cell number. Have an excellent day!
