ABOUT US

For over 150 years, Founders Auxiliary has been a vital force of support behind Children’s National Hospital, championing fundraising, advocacy, and community outreach. Rooted in the legacy of the Board of Visitors and Children's Health Board, we continue to enhance the hospital’s ability to provide exceptional, compassionate care for every child.

We believe in the power of joy and wonder to heal. We help the hospital meet its strategic goals and priorities so each patient can feel safe, supported, and inspired to dream big.

Our work fuels stronger kids and brighter futures. 

From pioneering new treatments to moments of play that brighten a child’s day, the Founders Auxiliary supports cutting-edge clinical innovation and joyful patient experience programs at Children's National through our Major Gifts and Grants.

We’re committed to making an impact on the lives of the children and families we serve, in our community, across the country and around the globe.
