Longview Regional Medical Center (LRMC) used National Volunteer Week (April 18-24) to honor people who find fulfillment in helping those who are less fortunate. Local volunteers were recently recognized at a Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon at Pinecrest County Club
National Volunteer Week recognizes the unselfish nature of people who give their time and effort for the betterment of others in need and for worthwhile causes. Many of these unpaid helpers also figure out the most imaginative and effective means to better their communities. By this week of recognition the nation can see how well Americans can overcome challenges and accomplish goals. LRMC encourages locals to donate themselves to positive social change through their combined ability and strength.
“We want medications without a prescription to thank our volunteers as well as encourage others to become involved in volunteer activities,” said LRMC Chief Executive Officer Jim Kendrick.

National Volunteer Week gives individuals and organizations who selflessly work to help others a chance to be recognized for their otherwise unpaid efforts, as they so richly deserve. This also helps locally to promote volunteer activity at LRMC and other local venues needing assistance.
