Family Fun at the Altamont Fair

At the 2017 Jefferson Awards, St. Peter’s Health Partners joined with the Times Union and WNYT-NewsChannel 13 to honor 11 dedicated volunteers whose efforts have made a significant positive impact on the Capital Region community.

Meet “13 Kids Who Care,” exceptional area youth who cast a bright light on our future through their volunteer efforts.

A program led by the St. Peter’s Health Partners office of volunteer services enables social workers, nurses, and information associates at St. Peter’s Hospital to provide vouchers to the Auxiliary-run thrift store, For Pete’s Sake, to patients in need. The vouchers allow these patients to purchase essential items following a hospital stay.
