I Am Volunteering!

I have been approved to serve as an volunteer for the Hardin Memorial Hospital Auxiliary, Elizabethtown, Kentucky!  I am very excited about the opportunity to learn about my new community through public service. 


From the Auxiliary website and Director, Kevin, I ave learned there are more than 150 active members of the Auxiliary who volunteer throughout the hospital. These men and women give approximately 40,000 hours each year and raise thousands of dollars, which they return to the hospital through major gifts. Volunteers work in many capacities. Some of these include performing clerical duties, serving as hosts and hostesses in the surgery, ICU and CCU waiting rooms, delivering flowers and mail working the front desk, and escorting patients to various departments. They also are busy behind the scenes helping out with statistics, education, and working the Gift Shop. The Gift Shop has the best collection of Vera Bradley items I have ever seen! (LOL)


I would like to encourage readers of my blog to step out and volunteer in your communities!  Chat Later!
