‘Beds’ buttons
Wilkes-Barre General Hospital Auxiliary President Mrs.
hospital for the purchase of new beds for patient rooms. The
“BEDS’’ buttons, which are worn by volunteers and
Auxiliary members, are a unique way to announce this latest
project. Auxiliary members recently completed a five-year,
$685,000 pledge in four years. The pledge made possible
the purchase of Therac, a linear accelerator used in
General's Cancer Treatment Center. A number of functions
held throughout the year enable the Auxiliary to raise money
to fulfill their pledges to the hospital. Three major fund-
raising activities sponsored by the group are the Annual
Card Party in April, the Golf Tournament in August and the
Starlight Ball, a social season highlight, in November. The
Auxiliary also sponsors the hospital's volunteer program,
which boasts over 600 junior and adult members.
