At Saint Francis Hospital–Evanston, we believe that healing extends beyond medicine. Our Healing Garden was created as a place of peace and renewal — a sanctuary where patients, families, and staff can find comfort in nature’s beauty.

To keep this space vibrant, we are inviting community residents with a passion for gardening to join us as volunteers. Whether you have years of experience tending flowers or simply enjoy spending time outdoors, your efforts can bring joy and tranquility to those who visit the garden.

Volunteers will help nurture plants, maintain the grounds, and ensure that the Healing Garden remains a welcoming space for all. In return, you’ll know that your time and care are directly contributing to the well-being of our hospital community.

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact our Volunteer Office at 847.316.4419 or email SFIL-volunteerservices@primehealthcare.com.

Together, we can cultivate a space that fosters healing, hope, and connection.
