Since 1963, NIH Auxiliary volunteers have helped Northern Inyo Hospital buy medical equipment for patient care. In that time, the Auxiliary has purchased more than $850,000 in equipment for the hospital.

Volunteers staff the Hospital Gift Shop and meet weekly to make crafts for the annual Holiday Boutique in November. Members also apply for grants and seek donations to help fund equipment purchases.

The Auxiliary has been a 501(c)(3) public charity since 2011.

Current NIH Gift Shop hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
