Volunteer for Family House

Gift of Life Family House will provide guest families with a comfortable respite from the stresses of caring for their loved one and volunteers are a very important part of providing that care. Whether it’s cooking a meal, answering the phone, sharing a laugh or shedding a tear, volunteers are truly the Heart of the House.

Prepare Baked Goods for Families

To fill the Family House with delicious smells like at home, individuals or small groups, bake cookies, brownies and other treats in our kitchen. This fun activity is a great way for Girl Scout troops, or school clubs, for example, to directly experience the remarkable power of volunteerism.

Keeping our House stocked with basic home necessities requires a lot of donated food and supplies. Every few months, we update our wish list of needed items – food, household goods, sample size toiletries and office supplies.

Host Arts & Crafts/Game Events/Family Activities
