Duke Hospital Auxiliary has been a vital part of Duke University Hospital since 1950.
Auxiliary volunteers work in the “Pink Smock” gift shops and the Kidz Need Hugz program. The “Teal Smocks” work in the Emergency Department of Duke University Medical Center.
All money earned by the auxiliary directly benefits the hospital. It is non-profit and governed by a board of directors
