Guild Member

The All Children's Hospital Guild is made up of dedicated volunteers who assist All Children's Hospital Foundation by providing resources for children who need the Hospital's services.

From a single organization formed in 1949 in St. Petersburg, the Guild has grown to include more than 600 members in eigth branches located geographically throughout our referral area - reflecting the fact that many children who need our highly specialized care come from far beyond St. Petersburg.

The Guild has underwritten many programs and capital needs at the Hospital. Funds from Guild activities have helped provide for the current Emergency Center, newborn intensive care unit equipment, a rose and butterfly garden for families and children, as well as the All Children's Hospital Guild Endowed Research Chair in Child Health Policy. The Guild has also raised support for the Ronald McDonald House, areas of the Hospital Outpatient Care locations and many other projects over the years.

The Guild has a current pledge of $4 million to provide for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in the new replacement hospital under construction.
