Fundraising Auxilians
Fundraising AuxiliansFundraising Auxilians provide significant support for Morris Hospital annually through special events which have enjoyed a rich history of community support. 
Proceeds from the Annual Golf Outing & Bridge /Euchre Tournament benefit two beloved Morris Hospital programs- Patient Transportation and Lifeline. Fundraising Auxilians lend a hand to plan and carry out all of the day's activities, ranging from selling raffle tickets, to registering golfers, to hosting the card tournaments.
The next Outing will be held on June 18, 2012 at Morris Country Club.
Since its inception in 1968, funds raised at the Annual Charity Ball have helped benefit Morris Hospital programs and services, as well as help purchase specialized equipment to aid in training, diagnostics, and advanced procedures. 
For this black tie gala, fundraising Auxilians assist in every aspect, including the acquisition of unique items for the silent and live auctions, as well as planning and creating the decor, and coordinating publicity.
The most recent Ball was held on March 3, 2012 at the Patrick C. Haley Mansion, raising $110,000 to benefit a new cardiac catheterization table and digital radiographic system for Morris Hospital.
