ACRMC Auxiliary Donates Nearly $21,000 for Equipment, Scholarships in 2025
ACRMC Auxiliary volunteers raised nearly $21,000 in 2025 through fundraisers and countless hours serving at the front desk and wherever the hospital needed them.
The volunteer Auxiliary at Adams County Regional Medical Center donated $20,899 back to the hospital in 2025, funding equipment purchases, patient services, department needs and scholarships through a year of fundraising events, donations and countless volunteer hours.
The Auxiliary generated the contribution through special events and hands-on service, with members regularly staffing the front desk and filling roles across the hospital wherever help was needed. The funds went toward enhancing the patient experience, supporting individual departments and providing vital equipment, in addition to the scholarship support.
A separate reference on The People's Defender's website describes a $20,000 donation earmarked specifically for equipment upgrades in the laboratory, family medicine clinics and emergency department. It remains unclear whether that figure represents a rounded version of the $20,899 total, a specific allocation within it, or a distinct gift. ACRMC had not publicly clarified the relationship between the two figures as of the news release's publication.
Charlie Hanmer, the Emergency Department manager at ACRMC, credited the Auxiliary's support with tangible improvements to frontline care. "The Hospital Auxiliary's generosity has made a meaningful difference in our Emergency Department, and as an ED leader, I've seen firsthand how their support provides the resources we need to improve patient care, staff efficiency, and the experience of the community we serve," Hanmer said. "Their support truly strengthens our ability to deliver timely, compassionate care when it matters most."
ACRMC is located near Seaman, Ohio and operates five family medicine clinics across Adams and Brown counties. The hospital recently earned The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval and has received national recognition for promoting organ, eye and tissue donation, milestones that reflect the institution's broader quality commitments alongside the Auxiliary's grassroots contributions.
