Through its RWJ Barnabas Health Hospice joint venture, VNAHG offers our hospice patient families a special service: a Bear Hugs keepsake to preserve precious memories.  Each Memory Bear is thoughtfully crafted from the garments of a loved one. Our team of skilled volunteer seamstresses are committed to providing this “lasting Hug” to bereaved family members.

For more information about Bear Hugs, or to learn about becoming a volunteer seamstress, please contact Pauline DePalma, BSW, Director of Volunteer Services at 732-224-6933 or Pauline.depalma@vnahg.org
