A self-supporting hospital, SGMC proudly provides care for the sick and injured with no local tax support.

The mission of the SGMC Volunteer Auxiliary is to enhance service to Medical Center customers. Our volunteers come from all walks of life. They are homemakers, teenagers, career men and women, retirees, husband and wife teams, and employees. But whatever the background, our volunteers are a special blend of people who share a common purpose – helping others by giving of themselves.
