It’s a perfect week for the Hospice Regattas Championship, with competitors representing 15 local regattas that depend on volunteers to succeed in raising funds and awareness for hospice. Say “thank you” to a hospice volunteer this week!

Today marks the beginning of National Volunteer Week. Volunteers serve many important functions in hospice care. If you know or work with hospice volunteers, take a moment to thank them. If you have been touched by hospice and want to get more involved, consider volunteering at a local hospice. Information on volunteering for hospice can be found on the Caring Connections website (www.caringinfo.org/volunteer). And if you are a hospice volunteer, THANK YOU!
