National Volunteer Week is April 19–25, and it gives us the perfect opportunity to say a very sincere thank you.

This week is all about recognizing the people whose time, commitment, and kindness strengthen our community. For us, that means shining a light on our incredible Auxiliary. Year after year, they quietly support our patients, staff, and hospital through service, fundraising, and a whole lot of heart.

Volunteers are the backbone of so many organizations, and healthcare is no exception. Their impact is felt every day, and it does not go unnoticed. National Volunteer Week is not just a celebration. It is a reminder of how much stronger we are when people step forward to serve.

We are grateful for the leadership, dedication, and teamwork of our auxiliary members. Thank you for everything you do for Roane General Hospital and the community we all care about so deeply.
