December 23, 2009, Brooklyn, New York… Lutheran HealthCare's annual Volunteer Recognition Dinner was held at Sirico's where more than 125 volunteers were honored for their dedication to LHC's mission of providing the highest quality services for the community.
Lutheran volunteers are men and women, high school and college students, retirees, career professionals, homemakers, and former patients or their family members and friends. There are more than 80 areas and programs in which volunteers are placed and placements range from those with direct patient contact, to those with little patient contact, such as clerical support.
