The over 200 active volunteers who donate about 25,000 hours to The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute each year are among the institution's most important assets. We are quite fortunate to have a dedicated group of individuals committed to The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute and willing to give the gift of time in so many ways. Some draw upon personal experience with cancer to offer inspiration and hope. Others share a passion for music, arts, crafts, research or conversation.
Volunteers often lend a compassionate and empathetic perspective.
Volunteers contribute greatly to help make patients and their families feel more comfortable and secure while at The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute. But volunteers receive rewards, too, meeting new people, making new friends, learning new things, and receiving a sense of personal fulfillment that only comes from helping others. Consider becoming a member of The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute volunteer team. Volunteers typically contribute three to four hours one day a week. However, other options are available.
