Hospital Auxiliaries

Packard Children's Hospital is fortunate to have an association of seven volunteer-run Auxiliaries whose events and activities raise funds to support uncompensated care at the Hospital. Together, these seven independent non-profit Auxiliaries include nearly 1,500 members, from San Francisco to San Jose. In addition to supporting the hospital through volunteer fundraising activities, bequests made by auxiliary members fund the Auxiliaries Endowment.

For more information about the Auxiliaries, please e-mail auxiliaries@lpfch.org or call (650) 497-8591.
