                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 11, 2018

  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the passionate and 
committed volunteers of the Hospice and Palliative Care Center of 
Alamance-Caswell, in Burlington, North Carolina.
  It is fitting to recognize these individuals during April, National 
Volunteer Month. Hospice of Alamance-Caswell is the only non-profit 
hospice care center in the Burlington area. This organization depends 
on the efforts of volunteers and could not survive without their hard 
work.
  For decades, volunteers have donated their time to patients and 
family members, selflessly giving to those in need. These volunteers 
have demonstrated a commitment to the mission: to offer the right care, 
at the right time, in the right way.
  In addition to medical treatment, volunteers provide assistance and 
comfort for the families of patients. Through each step, administrative 
support, fundraising, patient care and companionship, these individuals 
are there in times when they are needed most.
  It is a privilege to honor the volunteers of the Hospice and 
Palliative Care Center of Alamance-Caswell. Through their hard work, 
compassion, and desire to serve, they demonstrate the charitable spirit 
we are so fortunate to have in North Carolina.
