Each year, more than 200 adults and teenagers collectively provide nearly 13,000 hours of volunteer service to CHCC. Their responsibilities are varied and extensive. Some assist with activities or work in de Snoep Winkel Gift Shop and Tea Room. Others organize fundraisers or serve on the CHCC Board of Trustees. CHCC’s goal is to make a volunteer’s experience a valuable one, while also benefiting residents, patients, consumers, and clients.
