The Memorial Health System Volunteer Corps was awarded the Gold Award of Excellence for the twenty-third consecutive year at the annual joint convention for Kansas Hospital Association (KHA) and Hospital Auxiliaries of Kansas (HAK) in September.

The Corps must complete 17 requirements to be eligible for the award each year. The goals attained included their involvement in health-related community service programs such as Fit and Fine Wellness, contributing to a health career scholarship, membership recruitment, recognizing hospital personnel, promoting National Volunteer Week, and offering a health information program to the community such as Healthwise 55.

Memorial Health System Director of Volunteer Services, Michelle McClanahan, commended the volunteers on the accomplishment.

“Receiving the Gold Award for 23 consecutive years is amazing and proof of the commitment level and hard work that our volunteers provide every day to Memorial Health System,” McClanahan said. “Each and every volunteer has earned this Gold Award in their support of our projects and caring for others.”

According to McClanahan, there are many opportunities to volunteer for the Memorial Health System Volunteer Corps. Those who are interested in volunteering may contact Michelle at (785) 263-6692.
