Fundraising Events:

Cottage Hospital hosts a 5k run and a fundraising gala annually, both of which are vital in supporting the hospital’s initiatives. The Cottage Hospital Auxiliary plays a crucial role in raising funds for the procurement of new equipment and resources. Contributions from the local community are instrumental in ensuring the success of our events.

Giving Opportunities:

Locally, we provide health screenings and educational workshops on wellness and prevention. At Cottage Hospital, we believe in fostering a strong relationship with our community through engaging events that promote health, education and joy. Our annual holiday open house is a cherished tradition, bringing together families for a magical evening with Santa, and it serves as a wonderful opportunity for local businesses to contribute and connect with our shared goals. Collaborating with the Volunteer Fire Department (VFD) ensures our events, like the 5k race, prioritize safety and community spirit. Participating in fun activities such as the community donkey ball game and floor hockey with high school students highlights our commitment to community involvement and camaraderie. Additionally, our bi-annual visits to the senior center focus on empowering older adults with vital health information and resources, reinforcing our dedication to comprehensive community wellness.

Volunteer Opportunities:

Volunteering at a Cottage Hospital offers a rewarding opportunity to give back to the community while gaining valuable experience. The Auxiliary, often a key component of hospital volunteer programs, plays a crucial role in supporting various hospital functions through fundraising and service projects. Volunteers can assist with patient services, administrative tasks, or help organize community events and fundraisers. Event volunteers, in particular, are essential for ensuring the success of hospital-led events, such as health fairs, charity runs or holiday celebrations. These roles provide a chance to develop new skills, meet like-minded individuals, and make a meaningful impact on the hospital’s mission to deliver quality health care. For those interested, reaching out to the hospital’s volunteer coordinator is a great first step to learn more about available opportunities and how to get involved.
