Hospitals Auxiliary at Parnassus
The UCSF Hospitals Auxiliary at Parnassus is a volunteer, non-profit organization that raises funds for much-needed patient amenities. The auxiliary's goal is to provide the highest level of compassionate care to patients at UCSF Medical Center and UCSF Children's Hospital.
With the help of donors and friends, the auxiliary raises funds for patient services and amenities including its Special Wishes Program, which provides items and services that doctors, nurses and hospital staff identify to help alleviate the stress, pain and confinement that patients experience. Donations have provided teddy bears for children undergoing surgery, televisions, artwork for hallways and patient rooms, funding for the palliative care program called Comfort Care, waiting room renovations, sleep chairs for families and visitors, toys and a fund to assist families who have lost a child or loved one.
