Ways to Give

Becoming a Volunteer and the Hospital Auxiliary

Becoming a Volunteer

Volunteers bring to the hospital their own individual gifts of service which are needed and appreciated by the staff and patients. Through their generosity and sacrifice, volunteers allow the staff to make greater use of their skills by freeing them from duties that do not require professional training and making extra care available to the patients.

Volunteers who are not members of the Hospital Auxiliary can apply through the Personnel Services department and then work directly with the managers of the department where they are volunteering. For more information, contact Kal Keitel, Personnel Services Manager, at 347-1335.

Schedules are set to meet your needs as well as the needs of the hospital. Days and hours are assigned as far in advance as possible for your convenience. You can volunteer as much or as little as you would like.

Hospital Auxiliary

If you enjoy serving others and being part of a team, then the St. Anthony’s Memorial Hospital Auxiliary might be for you! The Auxiliary is a volunteer organization committed to promoting and advancing the welfare of St. Anthony’s through:

  • Public Relations

  • Services to the hospital

  • Fundraising
  • The Auxiliary was founded in 1956 by women who wanted to help the patients of St. Anthony’s. Since then, the Auxiliary has grown to a membership of over 260 men and women who serve in a variety of capacities. Membership is free of charge and open to all.

    While volunteer service is not a requirement of membership, there are many volunteer opportunities available for those who want to provide service.

    For more information about the Hospital Auxiliary, contact Michael Wall, Executive Director of Fund Development, at 217-347-1854.
