SPRINGFIELD – Since 1950, an all-volunteer staff has been committed to supporting patient services and contributing to the local hospital. On Monday, May 19, the PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center Guild celebrated 75 years of service.

“It means an awful lot to us,” said Cheri Brokaw, marketing chair and volunteer at the Guild since the 1970s. “I mean, 75 years, think of it. That’s three generations. We’re very excited about it. We’re very proud,” she said. 

The Sacred Heart Hospital Guild operates the Heartfelt Gifts Shop in the RiverBend lobby. The Guild contributes financially to the hospital by donating the proceeds from the shop to support patient services. The most recent contribution was $1 million for the construction of the Heartfelt House in 2017. The Ronald McDonald Heartfelt House offers pediatric and adult family suites for families of patients visiting the hospital.
