Recording Life Stories of patients
Volunteers with video or audio recording and editing experience are needed to help patients tell their life story, leaving a special legacy for family and friends. Volunteers interview, edit, and finalize videos or audio. There is no cost to the patient or family. You can choose the specific areas you would prefer to visit, and you can even do the editing in your own home!
