Hedrick Medical Center Auxiliary

Our dedicated volunteers have a wide range of responsibilities throughout Hedrick that complement their interests and skills. Members represent many age groups and parts of the community—parents, grandparents, business people, long-time volunteers, and young adults. We would not be the hospital we are today without the efforts of our wonderful volunteers.

How to join our volunteer team

The requirements are few; the rewards are many. Volunteers should be dependable and friendly with flexible schedules. As part of the auxiliary, you’ll experience a welcoming volunteer environment, tasks that suit your interests and skills, the satisfaction of helping others, and a free meal in the Garden Café during your shift.

You must be at least 18 years of age (exceptions made for high school groups and programs).
