    The Gift Shop at MCHD

    The Gift Shop

    The Gift Shop at MCHD is located in the lobby of Moore County Hospital District at 224 E 2nd St, in Dumas, TX.  


    We are dedicated to offering patients, families, District staff and our community a welcoming environment to purchase items for their loved ones or themselves.


    Proceeds from gift shop sales go towards scholarships to area students in health-related fields and to other worthy causes throughout the year.  


    Please consider stopping by to help us support area healthcare with the purchase of a lovely gift!

    Our Start

    In the summer of 2001, the late honorable Billie Faye Schumacher contacted then CEO Scott Brown at the hospital about having a group of volunteers to staff the Surgical Waiting Room.  At the same time, Mr. Brown contacted Betty Unlaub concerning organizing an auxiliary to operate a gift shop in the hospital.  The two civic-minded ladies began calling friends and acquaintances to join the effort.  Soon, a group of 27 folks were deep into cleaning the shop space, ordering product, stocking shelves and choosing uniforms.


    The shop officially opened in November 2001.  Since then, membership in The Auxiliary has changed and grown, but the current group is just as dedicated as the original.

    The Auxiliary

    The services provided by The Auxiliary have also grown. In addition to the gift shop, The Auxiliary members also staff the Surgical Waiting Room, serve as Rose Ladies for the hospital and adjacent nursing home, entertain the nursing home residents as the Fun with Music singers, operate the popcorn machine on Wednesdays, and assist the hospital with the annual Health Fair.

    Volunteers are always needed to provide excellent customer service to our patients and guests.  Currently, the Auxiliary has 45 members.
