BiographyACH GuildWhy and What We Do As Volunteers The All Children’s Hospital Guild consists of dedicated volunteers who assist the 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, Florida, the Guild has grown to include more than 450 members in nine Branches – St. Petersburg Day, Beach, Seminole/Largo, North Pinellas, St. Petersburg Evening, Pasco, Sarasota/Manatee, Tampa, and Brandon. The Branches host more than 50 fundraising events throughout the year in our effort to support the Guild’s Mission, which is: To advocate, volunteer, and fundraise for children and families of All Children’s hospital. In the last two years, the Guild has completed a $500,000 pledge to the Applied Behavioral Analysis Program and through the years, the Guild has raised funds for a variety of programs and projects. They have funded $4.1 million for the Newborn Intensive Care Unit in the new hospital, Most recently, the Guild has accepted a three-year, $900,000 pledge to Palliative Care.

The Palliative Care Team supports the primary health care team by providing emotional and spiritual support to the children and their family members. The goal is to help children and families live as normal as life as possible and support them in making decisions about care, while respecting families’ choices, values, and cultural traditions. Half of the infants and children hospitalized at All Children’s can benefit from some or all of the Palliative Care Team’s services. The Guild’s gift will also create a Pediatric Palliative Care Fellowship to help provide specialized physician training, enhance medical care, and provide needed medical research and education in pediatric palliative care.
