We’re rallying together for a cause that hits close to home. When you donate blood, you’re not just saving lives, you’re supporting fellow UMC employees and bringing hope to pediatric cancer patients as we gear up for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in September. 💙

Plus, for every donation, UMC will donate $10 to Brown Elementary, so bring your friends, family, and coworkers and help us make an even bigger impact!

Please join us in congratulating our July Employee of the Month, Ryan Miller!

During a late-night call, Ryan and his partner cared for a patient who was overwhelmed with fear and anxiety. She kept repeating, “I think I’m going to die.” On the way to the hospital, Ryan gently took her hand and asked if he could pray with her. As they prayed, she began to calm, her heart rate slowed, and she found peace in the moment.

Ryan’s calm presence, compassion, and willingness to lead with heart embody what it means to serve others at UMC.

We’re grateful to have Ryan on our team. Thank you for the care you show every day!
