(And I hate to dust!)" — Rachel Violette, CARE Clinic administrative volunteer and chef, and 9-year volunteer. "Basically I think everybody should volunteer and give back to the community." — Richard Chupkowski, DDS, CARE Clinic dental director and 19-year volunteer. "As a Christian, I am called to care for the well-being of my fellow man. While I don't have the skill to treat the patients who come to the clinic, I believe I have been called to ensure that the financial resources are not wasted and will be available to give the medical volunteers the supplies and equipment they need to provide effective medical treatment." — Walt Swing, CARE Clinic assistant treasurer and 20-year volunteer. "I wanted to do something to show my gratitude to my own doctor, Dr. Catherine Kelly, for all she's done for me. When I asked her what I could do, she told me to volunteer at The CARE Clinic. She is a long-time volunteer there herself, and she told me that 'The CARE Clinic is her heart'. So I did, I volunteered." — Judy Krantz, administrative volunteer and 7-year volunteer. "I originally became involved with The CARE Clinic because the mission of The CARE Clinic and the mission of where I work, Southern Regional Area Health Education Center, are similar, and I wanted to explore how the two health care organizations could partner." — Karen Mantzouris, current Board President and 9-year volunteer.
