- Summary
The Ajax-Pickering General Hospital Women's' Auxiliary was founded 65 years ago (1951), prior to the construction of the Harwood Avenue site of the Ajax-Pickering General Hospital. The Auxiliary was responsible for the fundraising required to construct the building and then, upon its opening, was responsible for many aspects of the operation of the...
The Volunteers provide support to the hospital through many in-patient areas. The responsibilities are significant, and the patients and staff in these areas are very grateful for the support. As the hospital expands, so do our services! Volunteers manage the patient flow. Ensure that patients have, in hand, their health card and the paperwork appr...
We have Auxiliary members (30 strong) who support the hospital through knitting, and this is done in their own homes. These volunteers knit baby items for distribution to newborns and items for the gift shop and raffles. As well we have a group that makes afghans for us that are handed out to patients.
Three times a week, a member of the Auxiliary visits Maternal and Newborn Services and delivers an item of hand knitted clothing for each newborn. At Christmas, all the babies are dressed head to toe in special holiday outfits by our special Christmas elves!
The Auxiliary has a tremendous history of financial support for the hospital. In addition to funds raised for the construction of the original hospital, the Auxiliary has donated in excess of one million dollars for the purchase of medical equipment. Any way we can, we run fundraising activities. These include bake sales, raffles, book sales, cupca...
If you are 16 or older but under 21 years of age and would like to volunteer with us you need to pick up an application package. Generally the packages are distributed through the auxiliary office on a specific day in August. That date is posted to our voice mail message at 905-683-2320 ext. 5481. The Student program runs from mid October until the...

We are blessed to have a great group of caring, industrious, committed volunteers who, on a daily basis, come to "work" and support the hospital in all that goes on here. Obviously this is done on their own time and for the better good for our staff and patients. One of our most important community connections is the volunteer work done by the many...
