Where do you fit into the picture?

As a volunteer – you can help by transporting residents around the facility, assisting with their activities, working in The Village Gift Shoppe or just spending time with residents.
As an advocate – you care about people and are a vital link between Phoebe Berks and the community. You can help spread the word about our services, and bring back suggestions for ways we can better serve our churches and community.

Phoebe Berks Health Care Center Auxiliary is an offshoot of the original auxiliary founded at Phoebe Home in Allentown. This organization remains linked to the entire Phoebe Ministries mission and ministry, but the main concern is for the residents of the Phoebe Berks Health Care Center.
In the brief history of Phoebe Berks Health Care Auxiliary, over $200,000 has been raised to assist in the care and comfort of the health care residents.
A volunteer recognition brunch and all-membership tea are held annually. Additional special events are scheduled throughout the year.
An executive board meets monthly. The board is comprised of the elected officers, appointed committee chairs, the health care administrator, volunteer coordinator, and the Activities/Volunteer director.
