Volunteering with BFO-HP
BFO-HP is fortunate to have a fabulous group of dedicated volunteers who give of their time freely. Without their help we would be unable to provide quality services to the bereaved in our Region.
Volunteering is a great way to stay connected with Bereaved Families. Volunteers are important and valuable to the viability and success of our organization. They help us reach out and strengthen our community while promoting awareness of our programs and services.
At BFO-HP we feel it’s important to acknowledge the feelings and experiences of those who have suffered a significant loss. Our goal is to raise awareness and promote understanding of grief and loss. As a volunteer, you play an important role of spreading the word about our work and helping those who need it, receive help.
