Benefits of Volunteering

Benefits of Volunteering

Although the highest rewards for volunteer service are both intangible and immeasurable, The Methodist Hospital wants to recognize your time and work performance by extending the following benefits:

  • Letters of Recommendation:  These may be written by the volunteer supervisor or by the unit supervisor for employment, education or scholarship references upon completion of 100 hours of service.
  • Special Events:  Speakers from The Methodist Hospital will address the volunteers at their service recognition luncheons and assembly meetings.  This is a unique opportunity to hear about visions for the future of medicine.  A question/answer session follows each presentation, and typically there is an opportunity to meet the speaker before the beginning of each meeting.
  • 15% off purchases at hospital cafeterias, valid at The Market Place, The Bistro and Blue Water Café.
  • Free Parking:  Parking will be provided while volunteering.
  • Free Flu Shots given annually in October.  Notification will be sent to inform volunteers of the date, time and location.
