Rady’s Carmel Valley Unit to Host Benefit Event

Rady Children’s Hospital Auxiliary of Carmel Valley (RCHA-CV) is an organization run by volunteering women from all over North County.  The unit was formed in 1994 and has continued to give its time and resources to support Rady Children’s Hospital – San Diego, and the health and well-being of the children it serves.

Annually, about 30 members participate in Auxilary events like Kids’ News Day, Fantasy on Ice, and many others.  Each of these events, as well as other volunteer activities at the hospital, help raise money and bring awareness for the children at the hospital.  In 2011, the Carmel Valley Unit raised over $700,000 for the Autism Discovery Institute, along with providing the children with a brand new playground.
