Orlando Health Hosts Volunteer-Focused ‘407 Day’

Orlando Health hosted its second-annual 407 Day on April 7, 2026, to honor the organization’s roots and put its mission of service into action. Orlando Health, alongside local businesses, community members and sports partners, came together to support and strengthen the communities it serves.
 

As part of the service day, Orlando Health hosted 63 various onsite and offsite volunteer projects benefiting different community partners in the various areas where the health system has a presence. Activities included meal packing and serving, hygiene kit assembly, building with Habitat for Humanity and even farm work with animals.
 

Orlando Health Lake Mary Hospital were part of two valuable projects contributing to the event. At the hospital, leadership and team members volunteered with US Hunger to help pack meals for families in need.
 

At the Rescue Outreach Mission in Sanford, FL, Orlando Health leadership and team members served lunch and helped clean common areas and outdoor spaces to help Seminole County’s only homeless shelter.

“Today is a powerful reminder of what makes our community so special,” said Megan Almasi, senior director, Orlando Health Community Relations. “By coming together as a team in service, we are humbled to help strengthen the place we call home, wherever that may be. We’re grateful to the many community partners who joined us in our mission to spend a day dedicated to making a lasting impact.”
 

2,098 team members volunteered throughout the day contributing 2,621 community service hours.
 

Participation is open to all Orlando Health team members and community partners who share a passion for giving back.
