Auxiliary and Volunteers
All HAMC, all volunteers become members of the Auxiliary. In addition to providing volunteer services, Auxiliary members raise money in support of HAMC and Haaland Estates. Over the years, the Auxiliary has raised tens of thousands of dollars for medical equipment, furnishings for public areas, and a multitude of other needs.

Foundation Volunteers
Most of the volunteer work of the GSHS Foundation happens twice a year. The GSHS Foundation holds two major fundraisers throughout the year through fun events: the Charity Golf Classic and the Greatest Needs Gala. Volunteers for these events help us make them a success.
The HAMC Volunteer Services Director processes the volunteer applications, orients new volunteers to their jobs, and records volunteer activities. We'd love to have you on our team.
Tracking volunteer hours is important not only to give you credit for your contributions of time and talents but also for reporting to our donors, grant-makers, and Federal and State agencies. Your hours count! Be sure to record them right away!
Good Samaritan Health Services Foundation (GSHS) plays a vital role in providing healthcare in our community and surrounding region by fostering supporting partnerships with individuals, corporations, and foundations who are passionate about advancing our communities through compassionate, patient-centered care.
