We recently had a privacy fence installed behind the playground at our office, and now we need a group of volunteers to stain the fence. This is best suited to a group with experience painting. KNCB can provide the paint, but the group will need to have the necessary supplies and tools to spray the stain on the fence. This is a 6' privacy fence, approximately 200' long.

Do you have a heart for Seniors and enjoy bringing joy to others?
Companion Volunteers are needed for our patients at Paradigm Health. It's as simple as listening to their stories, reading to them, walking beside them, and spending a little quality time. Most of our patients enjoy music and would love to listen and reminisce to some old tunes. Are you a good listener? Can you read aloud short stories or the newspaper? Would you enjoy just holding someone's hand and being a comfort to them? Our volunteers do this and so much more.
Paradigm has received USA Today's Top Workplaces for several years and in 2025 received the overall Top Workplace Leadership Award, illustrating our caring culture that highly values our staff and volunteers. We would love to tell you more about our free training and customizable opportunity based on your interests and needs.
Reach out to us today to learn how you make all the difference to someone at this special time in life.

Legacy project volunteers assist patients and families with creating meaningful projects to honor the patients’ life. Vigil volunteers provide supportive presence at the bedside of patients who are actively dying. These are just a few of the ways volunteers in our organization support our patients, families, and staff.
Even if you only have a few hours a month to give, we would be honored to have you join our team and support our mission of offering compassionate, personalized hospice care.Training is free and flexible to fit your schedule and you can choose what area you want to serve.Students age 15 and up are encouraged to join us as indirect volunteers or can buddy with another trained volunteer (teen or adult) to make in-person visits to patients in facilities.
