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.

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.

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.
