A Vital Link Between Hospital and Community
Alice Hyde Auxiliary is the largest donor to the hospital, and its volunteer members help support health care initiatives and services across the organization.
The Auxiliary raises funds to purchase new medical equipment and technology, supporting our ability to provide top-notch care. The Auxiliary also supports local students pursuing medical careers by providing scholarships.
