The strength of our country lies in the hearts and souls of our citizens.
Across the U.S., citizens donate their time and talents to improving lives and strengthening communities. At Lake Granbury Medical Center, we appreciate the Lake Granbury Auxiliary Volunteers and celebrate all those who dedicate their time to helping others.
The purpose of the Lake Granbury Medical Center Auxiliary is to provide assistance with educational programs, scholarships, and non-revenue producing items at the medical center for the benefit of patients, families and the community at large.
