The Nanaimo Hospice Shoppe operates solely to help fund the services and programs provided by the Nanaimo Community Hospice Society.  We currently have 80 volunteers who contribute over 1500 hours monthly. They are the friendly faces who greet you and help you find things, the enthusiastic sorters and pricers who make sure you are getting the best price on the quality goods we receive, and a great team of strong arms lifting, toting and moving the items, and the people who smile and say thank you when you happily pay for a treasure.

To volunteer, contact Tiffany at (250)585-0885 or complete and submit the form below.
