Volunteers Serving Our Hospital
The Auxiliary has served the community and the hospital since 1951, and has donated over $250,000 to date. The Auxiliary operates the hospital gift shop, which provides necessary items for hospital stays as well as gifts, including hand made items produced by Auxiliary members. Money raised is used in several ways, including purchase of patient care equipment and medical education scholarships for both students and adults.
