Syracuse Area Health Auxiliary is a lifeline to the hospital. In April of 1952, the Auxiliary was organized with a mission to help and support the hospital. Past and current projects include scholarship donations, Good Samaritan bingo, hosting open houses for staff, decorating the lobby at Christmas, furnishing magazines for the waiting rooms, managing the hospital gift shop and thrift shops. With the opening of the Thrift Shop in December of 2007 the Auxiliary has been able to fund many improvements to the hospital.
The SAH Auxiliary meets the 2nd Tuesday of the month in January, April, July and October. The meetings are held at the hospital at 1:30 p.m. Everyone in the hospital district is encouraged to join the auxiliary and help support the hospital. Annual dues are $5.00.
