Volunteer at VAMC and CBOCs

Like all medical facilities, Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics need volunteers. These volunteers are needed because many hospitalized veterans have no family or friends, and may be very far from home.

Volunteers perform a wide range of duties. Some enjoy direct contact with patients. Others assist the VA’s professional staff in ways that involve little patient contact. Your role as a volunteer can be as basic, and as important, as just being a friend to a patient.

DAV and DAV Auxiliary work with VA Voluntary Service (VAVS) to bring patients a touch of home…a personal contact…the feeling that they are remembered…and that they are still a part of a community.

No matter what your inclination may be, there’s a volunteer role you’ll enjoy. Show our country’s veterans you’re grateful for their sacrifices….Volunteer today!

If you would like to be a volunteer, please contact a DAV VAVS representative at a VA medical facility nearest to you: the DePere phone number for those who need to reach a Rep. (920.338.8620)
