Junior Volunteer Program at Mary Immaculate Hospital
The Junior Volunteer program at Bon Secours Mary Immaculate Hospital starts in June and finishes in August. It is very important that applicants think carefully about how much time they are able to give during the summer. We ask for four hours of your time each week during the summer. Think about time needed for family vacations, band, sports, employment, and other commitments. Please read over the policies and procedures (.doc) and make sure you are able to meet the requirements before completing the application.
