MUSC Hollings Cancer Center Volunteer Program

Cancer Center VolunteerMUSC Hollings Cancer Center Volunteer Program was established to provide our patients and visitors with hospitality, services and amenities that would not otherwise be available. A visit to Hollings Cancer Center can be overwhelming for many patients and their families. Not only are they often suffering from a serious illness, they are usually seeking care in unfamiliar territory from medical staff and caregivers they may not know. Our dedicated volunteers allow us to offer some of the highest quality patient care available, as we strive to make every patient's visit as comfortable and problem-free as possible.

Volunteer opportunities cover the spectrum from direct patient contact to assisting our busy staff with administrative duties. If you desire to make a difference, to touch a life, to learn while helping others, Hollings Cancer Center Volunteer Program can find the right place for you. Cancer Center Volunteer
