Auxiliary Volunteers
FCHC engages volunteers in a variety of duties, services and skills. Volunteers may be found at the Information desk, pushing wheelchairs, walking folks to their destinations, staffing the gift shop, greeting our community, helping at Fulton Manor, solving problems, assisting at special community events and local blood drives, or working in Auxiliary committees and on unique projects. If there is help to be done, a volunteer is often there.
We strive to provide meaningful work and a place to belong to our volunteers. We can be very flexible in scheduling. Honoring the unique needs of our community. For instance: Some of our volunteers go away for the winter, others go to the lake for the summer. One consistent desire our volunteers share is the desire to work, engage, share skills and give back. Our volunteers are very special people whose gifts of time and dedication allow us to provide an extra dimension of care. For that we are so deeply grateful.

The Gift Shop
The Gift Shop is typically open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.; however, hours are dependent on volunteer availability and cannot always be guaranteed. We encourage you to call ahead at (419) 335-2015 ext. 2173 before visiting.
VolunTeen Program
Students in high school or college interested in volunteering should attend a Health Care Camp as a starting point. Health Care Camps are free, and offered 5 times a year. They are a great introduction to working in the culture of health. Camp reservations are required, and the camps are capped at the first ten students who reserve. Once you have completed health care camp, you are invited to consider becoming a FCHC Volunteen. Our Volunteens can be trained for the same tasks our adults do, work at the Info Desk, or in the gift shop. We also can offer some job shadowing options to our teens. Volunteens are asked to commit to at least a year of service. There may be scholarship opportunities for our Volunteens to apply for, as well.
You Can Make a Difference
Volunteering benefits patients, visitors, and staff — and the volunteers themselves. You don’t have to give huge amounts of time to make a difference. We have opportunities for men, women, and teenagers during the day, evenings, and weekends. Whether you participate weekly or yearly, your time and effort improve the quality of life in your community.
