We were delighted to shower our wonderful SMJH volunteers with appreciation with a festive celebration on December 20 at The Greencroft Club. From dedicated volunteers in their ninth decade, to college students and junior volunteers, every single one of our 179 hospital volunteers makes a difference for our patients, families and team members. In 2025, these generous community members donated a remarkable 35,874 hours of their time, equating to $1,201,420 in value.
That is truly a gift worth celebrating! We were especially pleased to recognize two dedicated members of our volunteer team–Veronika Crawford and Fred Kopf. Both are dedicated patient support volunteers who have been recognized with gratitude many times for the guidance and comfort they share with our patients.
Huge thanks to Veronika, Fred, and all our volunteers for dedication, presence, heart and care they give to the hospital and all our patients. You all put smiles on our faces when we see you and we cannot thank you enough for all you do! Contact Sarah Asplin if you would like to join our team as a hospital volunteer.
