The Gift of Giving
Meet Volunteers Connie and Gloria — two powerhouse gift-shop heroes at Jennie Edmundson Hospital! After retiring, they chose to spend their golden years brightening hospital halls by managing the gift shop with heart, flair, and devotion. Their work isn’t just stocking shelves — it’s creating a cozy oasis for patients, families, and staff amid hospital life. These two are more than volunteers; they’re joy-spreaders, community builders, and proof that even small acts of service can make big waves.
I'm Ready! What Are the Next Steps?

- Call the Volunteer Services Department at (712) 396-6040 to schedule your interview and tour of the hospital.
- Bring the completed application with you to the interview or mail it to the address listed below.
- Schedule and attend an orientation session.
- During your orientation, you will have your photo taken by Human Resource for the required hospital ID.
- A Health Screening must be completed before you can begin volunteering at the hospital. You will be asked to contact the Employee Health nurse to schedule a time to have this done. The screening consists of a health questionnaire, vital signs, review of immunizations and a TB test.
