The NMC Auxiliary was formed by and for people who have a common commitment to the goals of the hospital and a concern for the health of the communities it serves. The Auxiliary works to promote goodwill on behalf of NMC. We enhance the delivery of quality care through the NMC Volunteer Program.

Membership in the Auxiliary is open to all. Annual dues are $10. The general membership meets four times each year. Meetings include a meal, special guest speaker and a business meeting. They are held in September, November, February and April. The Auxiliary is governed by a Board of Directors which consists of 15 volunteer members.

The gift gallery & other special projects

NMC’s Gift Gallery is a large source of income for the Auxiliary. It is managed by the hospital liaison and volunteers. The shop is open Monday through Friday selling women’s accessories; a variety of baby items including stuffed animals, fresh flowers, books and candy to name just a few.

The Auxiliary also hosts several fundraisers throughout the year.
