Thanks for your interest but we don't yet have dates for our next volunteer intake.

Volunteer 

Volunteers are at the heart of what we do. Our volunteers give generously of their time and are an essential part of our team. They bring their compassion, diversity, skills and enthusiasm to a wide variety of roles at Hospice Yukon, and we do our best to support and encourage their growth.

Volunteer with clients

All applicants interested in client-focussed volunteering are screened before starting our Volunteer Training Program. This includes a written application form, interview, police check, and references.  We take care to find a good fit between the interests and skills of each volunteer with an appropriate role at Hospice Yukon. Client-focused volunteer roles include:

• Healing Touch Volunteer
• Vigil Volunteer
• Grief Educator
• Grief Group Facilitator

Client-focussed Volunteer Training takes place when we have an organizational need.

Volunteer behind the scenes

We value volunteers who help in a range of non-client related roles. Some of the ways these volunteers contribute include helping with the library or newsletter, computer support, research projects, yard maintenance, house repairs, poster distribution, sewing feelie hearts, and more.  

If you are interested in volunteering ‘behind the scenes’ with Hospice Yukon, please fill out this form and return to volunteer@hospiceyukon.net.
