Become a volunteer
VA Loma Linda Healthcare System appreciates the goodwill of our benefactors and volunteers who give back to America's Veterans. As a volunteer, you'll contribute to an excellent patient experience by providing important support functions throughout the healthcare system.
Volunteers can serve as greeters, patient escorts, administrative positions, courtesy cart drivers, volunteer transportation network drivers, and more at various VA Loma Linda Healthcare System locations. CDCE hosts monthly Volunteer Orientation sessions on the second Thursday of the month from 1-2 p.m. at the Jerry L. Pettis Memorial Veterans Hospital.
To sign up for Volunteer Orientation or get more information about volunteering or donating, contact VA Loma Linda's Center for Development and Civic Engagement office, sometimes referred to as Voluntary Service, at LLVAVoluntaryservices@va.gov or
