He was also able to assist families in choosing hospice care for their relatives.

Beyond his commitment to social work and the aging community, Wiegand is extremely involved in his South Jersey community. He is a volunteer and paid team leader for the Cole Hamels Foundation.

He was previously actively involved in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program, serving as a mentor of a “little brother” from 2007 through 2011. In the same time period, he volunteered his services to the Special Olympics, assisting in various events.
