"I started volunteering at the Will-Grundy Medical Clinic to fulfill a community service requirement in high school. I have performed a variety of tasks as a volunteer, and I have seen what an asset the clinic is to the community. This is my fourth summer at the clinic, and my experiences have helped me to decide to pursue a career in dentistry."

"I volunteer at the Clinic as my way of giving back to
the community that has been good to me and my family.
I can use my nursing skills to help others.
It truly is a blessing for me to be able to assist our patients."
Betty, RN
"I've volunteered at many places, including migrant worker camps. It often
gets to be "a job" for the staff and volunteers. You don't get a sense of
that at the Will-Grundy Medical Clinic. There is such an appreciation for
people here."
Franciscan Sister Sarah Hennessey, volunteer interpreter
