The Heart of the Rockies Regional Medical Center Auxiliary is looking for additional volunteers to help staff the hospital gift shop. The shop is open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Volunteers either work a half-day shift each week or serve as a substitute when someone is absent.
Proceeds from the gift shop help purchase medical equipment, support hospital programs, and provide scholarships for high school students planning to enter the health care field.
Gift shop profits and proceeds from other fundraisers enabled the Auxiliary to donate $11,000 in 2017 to purchase equipment in five hospital departments and the HRRMC Buena Vista Health Center. The Auxiliary also awarded $4,000 in scholarships to local high school graduates in 2017.
“The HRRMC Auxiliary is a meaningful and wonderful opportunity to volunteer in our community,” said HRRMC Foundation Director Kimla Robinson. “Anyone interested in joining the Auxiliary can pick up an application in the hospital gift shop or call (719) 530-2395.”
