About Providence General Children's Association

 

Since 1953, Providence General Children’s Association has generously served hundreds of children in our community.

Our all-volunteer organization has a membership of more than 300 women participating in 11 active and four emeritus guilds. All of our fundraising profits benefit the needs of children in our hospital community.

We operate two unique gift shops entirely staffed by volunteers on Providence Regional Medical Center’s Colby and Pacific campuses. The gift shops raise approximately $150,000 annually for our Association.

Our fundraising highlights include: 

  • Contributing more than $1.3 million over the past four years to the health care needs of children in our community.

  • Founding Camp PROV for special needs children in 1996 and providing ongoing support.

  • Awarding ten $2,000 scholarships to high school seniors each year who have volunteered at CampPROV or in the hospitals and have maintained a high grade point average. (Volunteer applications available via Volunteer Services.)

  • Operating the gift shops on the Colby and Pacific campuses with an all-volunteer staff
