About the role

If you have the gift of quilting, please consider volunteering! We are Hope Health Care, providing superior hospice care to patients in Dallas, Collin, Rockwall and Hunt counties. We are seeking a few experienced quilters to volunteer making Fidget Lap Blankets for our hospice patients suffering from dementia related diseases. You may be asking "What is a Fidget Blanket?" It is a small lap-sized quilt or mat equipped with textured fabrics, zippers, buttons, buckles, and ribbons. Designed as a therapeutic tool, it provides tactile and sensory stimulation to keep restless hands busy, which helps soothe anxiety and boredom in users. If you have the gift of creating something like this, and the time to volunteer, we want to hear from you! Once you have completed this Interest Form, we will be contacting you shortly with more details. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HEART TO SERVE!

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
