Celebrating National Volunteer Month
April is National Volunteer Month, a time to celebrate the contributions of volunteers, reaffirm your commitment to giving back to the community and encourage others to do the same. For Midwest Express Clinic, community is at the heart of everything. That’s why we are always seeking out ways to participate as volunteers for charitable events and fundraisers throughout the Northwest Indiana and Chicagoland area.
