Promoting Saint John's since 1987...The Guild has 
funded projects and programs throughout the Health Center including:  Emergency Department, NICU, Gift Shop, Nursing Department.  

Safe Patient Handling Equipment

Child and Family Development Center (CFDC)
We have hosted two Play Date fundraisers to support therapy (family and child) and social services that enhance the independence of children and families with disabilities enrolled at the Health Center's CFDC.  In the Fall at our Annual Luncheon, we collect gift cards from Target, Ralphs, and other stores to help the families through the holiday season.  Click here to learn more about the CFDC...
