Partners in Exceptional Care of Clarinda Regional Health Center received a Governor’s Volunteer Award from Governor Kim Reynolds and Lt. Governor Chris Cournoyer during a special recognition ceremony held Wednesday, June 4 in Urbandale. 20 Volunteers were honored with an Individual award by Clarinda Regional Health Center for their hours volunteering within the hospital and out in the community to improve the lives of patients. Volunteers help Clarinda Regional Health Center to advance exceptional care each and every day. More than 290 awards are being presented this year. It is estimated that 96 communities in Iowa were served by this year’s honorees. “Those being recognized are the people who invest in others without expecting anything in return—except, of course, for the fulfillment that comes from doing their part to give back to their community,” said Gov. Kim Reynolds. “This collective impact is nothing short of remarkable.” Coordinated by Volunteer Iowa, a bureau within the Iowa Department of Health and Human Services (Iowa HHS), the Governor's Volunteer Award program—now in its 41st year—provides an easy way for Iowa nonprofits, charitable organizations, and government entities to honor their volunteers with a prestigious, state-level award.
