Hospital Auxiliary Hosts Annual Holiday Sale

The Community Memorial (CMH) Auxiliary is celebrating another year of generosity and community spirit after raising more than $7,000 at its Annual Holiday Sale. The event, held on December 6th at the Cornerstone Baptist Church in town, brought together staff, volunteers, patients, and community members to support programs that directly benefit patient care.

The holiday sale featured handmade crafts, baked goods, seasonal décor, gift items, and a wide range of donated treasures. Thanks to the enthusiastic turnout and the dedication of Auxiliary volunteers, this year’s fundraising total exceeded expectations.

“We are incredibly grateful for the support from our community,” said Jeff Coakley, CMH President and CEO. “Every dollar raised goes back into improving the patient experience, and this year’s success reflects the generosity and kindness of everyone who participated. We extend our deepest appreciation to the ongoing hard work and dedication of our Auxiliary volunteers.”

Funds from the sale will support the hospital’s key initiatives, including equipment purchases and technology upgrades, and ongoing volunteer-led programs that enhance care across the hospital. The Community Memorial Auxiliary extends a heartfelt thank-you to all donors, shoppers, and volunteers who helped make the event possible.
