We realize that everyone's interests and availability may not match our on-site needs. We hope that you or your group will consider joining our "virtual volunteer" program. The following are off-site ways that you can help the patients and families of UH.

Collect current magazines (within the past three months) and books for hospitalized patients and our clinic waiting areas. Crossword puzzles, word search books, and new decks of playing cards and new games are diversionary items we can also use.

University Hospitals Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital and Hanna House skilled nursing facility maintain wish lists of needed non-medical items. Items range from bubbles and small craft items to electronics. All sizes and shapes of quilted, knit, and crocheted items are needed for our patients in UH Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital (ages birth to 18 years of age), for infants in University Hospitals MacDonald Women's Hospital, and adults in Hanna House Skilled Nursing area. We are happy to accept your hand-made blankets, quilts, hats, booties, and other items from a smoke-free home.

If you would like to participate in one of the suggested off-site opportunities or have other "virtual volunteer" ideas, please contact us for further details.
