Atlantic General Hospital

The Atlantic General Hospital Auxiliary promotes the welfare of the Hospital by fostering good public relations, providing service to the Hospital, organizing health related projects and by conducting fund raising activities. Our Auxiliary is the second largest single hospital in volunteer numbers with 247 members and our volunteers provide more than 39,000 hours of service to the hospital annually. 

In 1998 The Junior Auxiliary Group (JAG) was formed as a sub-group of our Auxiliary. The group consists of hospital and health system associates and community members who want to socialize and be active in supporting the hospital but are unable to volunteer during the day due to work and/or childcare responsibilities.

The mission of JAG is to increase community awareness of Atlantic General Hospital and its associates through fun, fellowship, and family-oriented activities and fundraising. Each year this group publishes a welcome reference book of personal references for new member of the hospital community and supports the James G. and Nancy W. Barrett Nursing Scholarship Fund.

Volunteers support the Hospital by donating their time and expertise every aspect of our Hospital and Health System. Volunteers also serve on Hospital teams and committees providing crucial insight and community support to our Hospital. 

While the Auxiliary is extremely generous in their donation of time, the organization also offers financial support to the institution.
