Established in 1924, our volunteer program is an important part of the hospital's heritage. Volunteers work in a variety of ways to achieve their mission, which is "to render service to the hospital and its patients, and assist the hospital in promoting the health and welfare of the community."
Currently, 300 active volunteers working in 18 areas of the hospital have donated more than 500,000 hours of their time. Our volunteers have raised over $1 million for the hospital.
