Giving Guide: Arkansas Children’s Hospital Auxiliary

MISSION

Founded in 1967, the Arkansas Children’s Hospital Auxiliary serves patients and families through fundraising and service projects. More than 500 members support funding initiatives that include creating purposeful healing spaces designed for patients and their families, contributing to the Arkansas Children’s Research Institute and supporting programs that provide emotional support, including Good Mourning, Palliative Care and Comfort Foods.

FUNDRAISERS AND EVENTS

The ACH Auxiliary’s efforts are funded by special events and projects, as well as annual membership dues. Fundraising efforts include Miracle Ball, Arkansas à la Carte, Race for a Healthier Tomorrow, the ACHiever program, Playaway Gift Shop and the Holiday Card Project. Last year the Auxiliary raised $1.2 million for Arkansas Children’s Hospital.
