March Volunteer Spotlight

Retiree Mona Gushiken gladly spends three hours of her week providing administrative support at Islands Hospice. It’s her way of giving back to an organization that supported her during her time of need.

“Islands Hospice helped my family and I care for my father in his final days, and I wanted to give them my time in appreciation,” she said.

Mona has been volunteering at Islands Hospice’s Town location for about one year. She does data entry and other administrative activities, which include entering the volunteer activity note forms into the system, filing, collating and stuffing letters for mailing.

Her favorite part about Islands Hospice is the team she gets to spend time with. “I enjoy working with the people,” she said.
