Volunteer with Ave Maria

A little of your time.
A lasting difference.

Share your presence, your kindness, and the things you love with neighbors and families across the Texas Hill Country.

There is a place for you here

Sometimes, the most
meaningful gift is
simply being there.

You don’t have to have all the right words to make someone feel less alone. A conversation, a favorite story, or a quiet moment together can bring comfort to a person receiving hospice care.

At Ave Maria Hospice, we welcome people who want to give back with compassion and respect. Tell us about your interests, the time you can offer, and where you’d like to volunteer. We’ll talk through the possibilities together.

Small moments, real connection

Many ways
to make a difference.

Opportunities depend on the needs of the people we serve and the right fit for everyone involved.

01

Offer companionship

Spend time listening, reading aloud, enjoying music, or sharing a hobby. Your presence can help a patient feel connected and seen.

02

Support a family

Be a thoughtful, reassuring presence for loved ones. We can discuss ways to help that respect each family’s wishes and the volunteer’s role.

03

Help behind the scenes

Prefer a supporting role? Let us know about your organizational, creative, or practical skills, and we’ll explore where they may be useful.

Start with a conversation

Bring your heart.
We’ll talk about the rest.

We’ll learn about you and discuss current opportunities, scheduling, and what to expect. Before any placement, our team will explain the preparation, boundaries, and requirements for the role.

Interested in helping in your own community? Choose from any of our nine service counties when you get in touch.
