Quotes about Volunteers and Volunteering

Who will comfort those who are alone at the end of their long journey?
Who will hold the hand of those who grieve for a loved one lost? 
Who gives a smile to those who have not had companionship in a long while?
A hospice Volunteer.

Most avoid death and those who will soon meet it.
Most are afraid to reach out and make a friend they know they will lose.
Most cringe at the thought of spending time with a stranger, but not you,
A hospice volunteer.

In a patient's darkest hours, you shine a beam of light.
When a family in the time of greatest need, you are there to help.
A smile, a hand, a few hours time - such precious gifts given, 
By you, a hospice volunteer.
