Round-up your organization, office, class, choir or musical ensemble to sing/perform holiday songs to cancer patients who are spending the holidays in the hospital. We are also searching for a volunteer Santa Claus to help celebrate the holidays with our patients. Holiday time can be very difficult for many patients who are away from their homes and families, and UPMC Cancer Centers is very interested in hosting groups to perform. Please contact us so we can discuss the possibilities of how you can help our patients. Times are flexible. Individuals or groups are permitted to volunteer. Individuals must be at least 14 years of age. Children may be in a group but must be accompanied by adults. This opportunity is sponsored by: UPMC Cancer Centers and University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute
We need volunteers who are free at these times
