BRUNSWICK — The Mid Coast Hospital Auxiliary will be hosting its annual “Sweets for the Sweet” Valentine bake sale on Feb. 12, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Mid Coast Hospital Café, 123 Medical Center Drive. Proceeds from this fundraiser benefit hospital projects and Healthcare Career Scholarships, a program to support the future growth of a high-quality medical workforce.

The sale features homemade fudge and candies, as well as a variety of baked items including breads, scones, cakes, pies, tarts and cookies. Assorted plates are available, as well as treats packaged in small amounts, ready for gift giving.

Each year the Mid Coast Hospital Auxiliary awards approximately $40,000 in healthcare scholarships to local high school and college students, or to hospital employees furthering their education at four year colleges, technical schools or specialized training centers. Applications for scholarships are due April 15, and may be found at midcoasthealth.com/volunteer.
