Winona Health Volunteers welcome all community members to explore the many opportunities available throughout Winona Health.
“Volunteering is a good feeling,” said Al Mulyck, Winona Health Volunteer. “I’ve watered plants, and I’ve put things together and maintained things for the gift shop. Now I help with the courier service, which I also enjoy. For everything I do, I always hear a ‘thank you’ It is a good feeling to be appreciated. Being a Winona Health Volunteer is like being part of a big happy family.”
