How to Volunteer
Gifts to the Friends of Mercy Foundation have helped provide for the changing health care needs of our community by constructing buildings, enhancing programs, purchasing new medical equipment, funding scholarships, supporting community outreach efforts, and much, much more.

Volunteers serve in several areas of the hospital and are an integral part of the team at Mercy Hospitals.
Auxiliary Volunteers
Beginning on March 2, 1955 at Mercy Hospital downtown, volunteers from all walks of life began to devote themselves to extending services that might not otherwise be available.
Our hospital volunteers are easily identified by their courteous smiles, helpful attitudes, and willing hearts as they serve with a friendly spirit of loyalty.
Volunteering at Mercy Hospital Downtown or Mercy Hospital Southwest offers a rewarding job to fill hours you have available, whether you are male, female, a professional, retiree, stay-at-home mom, office worker, newcomer, student, or someone looking for a new challenge.
Junior Volunteers
Junior Volunteers must be high school students 14 – 18 years old and able to volunteer at least once a week for four hours.
