“I’ve met so many wonderful people volunteering at Villa Therese Catholic Clinic! I know that I’m making a difference for people in our community who really need it!”
This is a typical refrain from all our volunteers who make things happen at Villa Therese. The clinic staff relies on volunteers to assist with archiving medical records, answering the telephone, filing and other administrative tasks. With volunteers’ assistance, there’s more time for staff to attend to patient needs.
In addition, we often have projects that need specific areas of expertise like finance, marketing, law, or information systems. Villa Therese Catholic Clinic wants to tap into your talents. And if you are interested in helping us to further our mission into the future, please consider serving on the Board of Directors.
If fundraising and working on our assistance programs are more to your liking, then check out our list of those volunteer activities. Whether it’s helping with the Pack-2-School program, or the annual fundraiser, volunteers play an important role in raising funds and helping our patients.
For questions or to sign up to volunteer, email execdirector@villatherese.org or call 983-8561. Training provided.
