How we help:
Auxiliary Volunteers strive to enhance the comfort of patients by providing extras such as the “Women’s Daily Planner” for mammography outpatients. Funds for these items are raised through numerous bazaars, bake sales, book fairs and from the gift shop located in the main lobby of our hospital.
Our volunteers help local and national charities at various times throughout the year including helping with presents for local children at Christmas and holding fundraisers when needed for disasters and other causes.
An application and screening process is required for all volunteers. The minimum volunteer age is 14 years for the Junior Volunteer Program.
Contact or stop by the Auxiliary to apply as a volunteer.
