Volunteering at HCMC gives you the opportunity to work within our community of diverse volunteers, staff, visitors and patients.  As a volunteer you will help supplement and enhance hospital services and programs — you will make a difference.

Most volunteers schedule a 3-4 hour shift once per week for 3-6 months.  A coordinator will work with you to find a position that fits your schedule and your interests from among our openings.  Daytime, evening and weekend hours are available. 

Volunteering is a great way to:

• Gain career experience during educational programs
• Become acquainted with the hospital environment
• Give something back to the community
• Address the needs of others
• Work with others or meet new people
• Make a difference
• Continue a past connection with the medical center
• Gain experiences and references for future job applications
• Learn new things and have new experiences
