❤️Community Grace. Community Love. The Power of Christmas in Action. 🎅❄️

Volunteers from the community came together with one awe-inspiring purpose: the kiddos! 🧸

Every smile, every toy, every helping hand told the same story—when a community moves in love, miracles feel ordinary. 500+ toys given out!

To the volunteers who gave their time, energy, and heart—thank you. You didn’t just deliver toys today; you delivered joy, dignity, and the reminder that our children are deeply cherished.

✨ Today was heartwarming. Today was powerful. Today was us. ✨

🎄 The Monte Vista Clinic Is Showing Out This Holiday Season! 🎄

Every department at the Monte Vista Clinic has gone all-in to spread holiday cheer! From festive decorations to joyful teamwork, our clinic is glowing with the spirit of the season.

This holiday season, we want to remind our friends and neighbors that RGH’s reach is truly Valley-wide, and the Monte Vista Clinic proves it day in and day out. Our teams are here for their patients, community members, friends, and family—always with compassion, dedication, and heart.

Take a look at how cool our clinic is as each department brings the holidays to life 🎅✨ It’s more than decorations—it’s a reflection of the pride, care, and unity that define the Monte Vista Clinic.

From all of us at the Monte Vista Clinic, we would like to wish all of the San Luis Valley a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you for trusting us with your care—today and always. ❤️🎄

🎁 Bundle Up the Valley: Community in Action ❄️

We are incredibly proud to share; Rio Grande Hospital and Clinics was able to donate more than 75 warm winter items through the Bundle Up the Valley initiative in support of La Puente Home in Alamosa.

❤️ La Puente plays a vital role in our community—addressing the effects of poverty by providing a safety net of essential services that help individuals and families stabilize, heal, strengthen, and ultimately thrive. To be given the opportunity to support such an impactful organization is truly an honor. 🎅

Giving back is always meaningful, but it holds even greater significance during the holiday season, when warmth, compassion, and community matter most. This effort would not have been possible without the generosity of our RGH staff, community members, and the entire San Luis Valley. Your kindness is what makes community happen the way it should.

From all of us at Rio Grande Hospital, we wish La Puente and our SLV neighbors a warm, safe, and joyful holiday season. 💙

🎄✨ Because of YOU (SLV), Christmas Magic Is Already Happening… and We’re Not Done Yet! ✨🎄

This season, something truly special has been unfolding right here in the San Luis Valley. Thanks to the generosity of our community, toys are already being collected, and smiles are already forming!

One of our favorite sights so far? Watching little ones donate toys for other kids—proof that the spirit of giving knows no age. When kids help kids, you know something beautiful is happening. 🧸✨

The Del Norte Ministerial Alliance and Rio Grande Hospital & Clinic are proud to partner together to make sure every child gets to believe in Santa this Christmas. Now, the final PUSH!

Toy Drive Event – FINAL PUSH!

✨ What a Night at Rio Grande Hospital! ✨
This past Saturday, Rio Grande Hospital and Clinics held our annual Christmas Staff Party—and what an incredible success it was! From the turnout to the overwhelming community and volunteer support, the night truly reflected the heart of RGH.

The food… where do we even begin? A huge thank you to Greg Porter and Annabell Briggs. The countless hours, dedication, and care they put into making sure everyone was fed—with smiling faces—did not go unnoticed. That level of selfless effort is the epitome of RGH’s culture: doing the right thing simply because it is the right thing.

🎅And then there was Andy Torres—or Santa… or Sandy 😉—who absolutely rocked it for the kiddos alongside his trusted elves. The joy, laughter, and excitement they brought made the night extra special for us and our families.

The point is this: community doesn’t happen by accident. It takes an all-around effort—and on Saturday night, we did it. Together.

From all of us at Rio Grande Hospital, thank you to our incredible staff and to the families who support them day in and day out so we can do our jobs the right way.

🎄 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🎄

🎄🚗 HOLIDAY ROOOOAD… and We Have Our Winners! 🚗🎄

We are beyond excited to announce the champions of, RGH Employee Appreciation game: Holiday Road!
✨ Andy Torres – 1st & Audrey Holmes 2nd!
Give them a big round of North Pole applause! 🎅❄️

Watching everyone jump into the fun this week has been the highlight of our holiday season. From spinning the wheel to completing challenges that would make even Clark Griswold proud, you all made Holiday Road an absolute blast.

We laughed, we competed, we occasionally questioned our life choices (mainly while doing the challenges 😄), and most importantly—we shared so much joy.
RGH staff, YOU make this place what it is.

Your kindness, humor, teamwork, and willingness to be gloriously silly together, is the real holiday magic. ✨❤️
(Clark would definitely say we have the jolliest bunch around.)

Congratulations again to Andy & Audrey for navigating the twists and turns of our very own Holiday Road and coming out on top! 🏆🎁
