The Creston Valley Hospital Tuck Shop and Meals on Wheels volunteers were recently recognized at a tea in their honor.

There are approximately 14 regular volunteers that work in the Tuck Shop at the Creston Valley Hospital, with another 28 that provide support by being a spare, by knitting, sewing, crafting and working the Creston Valley Farmers’ Market. Last year they donated approximately $19,000 to the hospital for equipment.

Administration, physicians, nursing and all hospital staff, as well as patients, recognize their wonderful efforts and appreciate the time they volunteer as a gift to the hospital and community.

The Meals on Wheels drivers deliver healthy meals prepared at the hospital to clients in need of the service three times a week. There are approximately seven drivers that support this service on a regular basis, often through challenging weather and road conditions.
