Hey !! We are in the final weeks of Montana’s Community Booth in support of Hospice Orillia.

From June through August, 10% of your bill at the Community BBQ Booth will be donated to Hospice Orillia—at no extra cost to you. Your support helps provide compassionate care and comfort to individuals and families navigating life-limiting illness, grief, and loss in our community.

Make it a night out with friends or a family dinner with purpose. Great food, local impact, and a meaningful way to support hospice care close to home.

🌟 Love Hospice Orillia but not sure about direct client visits? This volunteer role is for you!

Not everyone feels called to client facing service—and that’s okay. Hospice Orillia is rallying Fundraising & Special Event volunteers who want to make a meaningful impact without providing direct client service.

Why volunteer with Fundraising & Events?

Make a real difference: Your efforts directly support free support for those navigating a life-limiting illness, death or grief journey, as well as community education.

Flexible & team-based: Help with set-up, registration, promotions, or behind-the-scenes planning for events like Hike for Hospice, Hot Rods for Hospice, community BBQs, and more.

Condensed training: Organizational support volunteers complete a shorter, role-specific orientation—no 30+ hours of clinical training required.

Great for many skills: Event planning, social media, admin support, community outreach, or just enthusiastic helping hands—all are welcome!

What you might do:
- Assist with special events (e.g., Hot Rods for Hospice, Hike for Hospice, Candles of Remembrance, Garden of Remembrance)
- Help promote third-party fundraisers and act as a Hospice ambassador in the community
- Support event logistics: setup, registration, money handling, teardown
- Join planning committees and attend volunteer appreciation/education sessions

How to get started:
- Submit your interest via the Hospice Orillia volunteer form
- Interview & references: A staff member will connect within 2–3 business days
- Police Records Check (Vulnerable Sector Screening)
- Complete role-specific training and a post-training check-in

📩 Questions? Contact Ashley MacGregor, Volunteer Coordinator, at [email protected] or 705-325-0505 ext. 218.

💙 Whether you can give 2 hours a month or join a big event day, your time helps keep compassionate care accessible to all.

Volunteer with Hospice Orillia

Do you enjoy walking, connecting with others, and supporting people through life’s difficult moments?

Hospice Orillia is looking for compassionate volunteers to support our Bereavement Support Walking Group. This group offers individuals who are grieving an opportunity to connect with others, share their experiences, and find comfort through gentle walks and companionship.

Volunteers can help create a welcoming, supportive environment where participants feel heard, encouraged, and less alone as they navigate their grief.

No special words are needed—just kindness, empathy, and a willingness to walk alongside others.

If you’re interested in making a meaningful difference in your community, we’d love to hear from you. Please email Ashley MacGregor, Volunteer Coordinator, [email protected] or by phone at (705) 325-0505 ext. 218
