The UVM Medical Center Auxiliary, Inc.

The University of Vermont Medical Center Auxiliary is made up of members from the community, who support the mission of the UVM Medical Center through financial contributions and the provision of services for our patients, their families and our staff.

The Auxiliary is always looking for new members, and we would like to invite you to come join us in our support of Vermont's academic medical center.

What Does the Auxiliary Do?

The Auxiliary administers a variety of programs and entities that support the UVM Medical Center, including Replays Resale Shop and various fundraisers and special events. The Auxiliary is the largest outright donor to the medical center, supporting health care initiatives and services across the organization.

Aside from the rewards of helping support the medical center, Auxiliary members meet four times per year at the Burlington Country Club. These business luncheons are where members approve the distribution of funds and vote on the election of officers. Speakers from the medical center also speak on a variety of health topics.

Why Should I Join?

Support from the Auxiliary has been pivotal in our efforts to improve our service to patients and their families. Their donation enabled us to perform echocardiograms on the cardiology floor, closer to the patient's room, thereby eliminating patient transport through the hospital. These types of donations are critical to patient comfort during an emotionally challenging time.
