Make a difference with Reid Health's Blue Brigade

Members of Reid Health’s Blue Brigade Volunteer Auxiliary are more than helpers, they’re the heartbeat of our mission. Our volunteer program, the Blue Brigade, welcomes community members ages 16 and older who are eager to serve, grow, and give back. From greeting guests to supporting patient care, Blue Brigade volunteers bring compassion and energy to every interaction, creating a warm and healing environment for all.

Reid Health volunteer vision

Our vision is to have volunteers actively engaged in service and committed to supporting Reid’s mission to lead our communities to well-being, one person at a time. 
The Blue Brigade embodies this vision through every act of kindness, whether offering comfort to a patient, helping visitors find their way, or supporting care teams behind the scenes.
