Friends of Strong Exude Passion and Add Value to the Patient Experience
Friends of Strong volunteers are a true inspiration to those they interact with throughout Strong Memorial Hospital and many offsite UR Medicine health care facilities. They're volunteers in the truest sense, and they travel from throughout the Western New York and Finger Lakes regions to serve our community.

Friends of Strong Volunteers Create Countless Smiles
Impactful contributions throughout UR Medicine’s Strong Hospital aren’t always about dollars and cents; they’re about hearts and minds. Sporting their maroon smocks or blue polo shirts, men and women spanning various generations attend to the needs of our patients and their families each and every day—all as part of the Friends of Strong Volunteer program.
Friends of Strong Gives Thanks for Your Support
Every day. Every year, many of us stop by a URMC Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters for a refreshing chai, visit the hospital Gift Shop to grab a greeting card for someone special, or attend one of the many fundraisers organized by the Friends of Strong. What you may not know, is that the proceeds generated from each of these interactions contribute, in no small way, to patient- and family-centered care initiatives throughout Strong Hospital.
