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 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.

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!

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.
