Volunteer Opportunities
Join Our Volunteer Team at Butler Health System
There are many ways to partner with the team at Butler Health System (BHS)
by volunteering. We are proud of our work and our team of excellent, caring,
and compassionate volunteers who make it possible. Thank you for your
interest in giving back to the community.
Committed to service, the BHS Auxiliary and Junior Auxiliary donate more
than 30,000 hours of service annually. The BHS Auxiliary supports patient care by donating thousands of hours
of volunteer service to the health system and provides financial support
with the proceeds earned from a variety of special sales and events. A
separate program for those in high school, the Candy Stripers offer young
people opportunities to volunteer in a healthcare setting.

Candy Stripers (Junior Auxiliary)
Young men and women who are at least 14 years old and in ninth through
