Our mission

Our mission is to raise charitable donations and awareness for UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland - a hospital for kids throughout Northern California - while providing service, friendship, leadership and education opportunities for our dedicated and diverse membership.

Who we are

Established over 100 years ago, Children's Hospital Branches is a non-profit corporation consisting of 10 auxiliary Branches.

Our diverse group of members work to support UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland - a leading children's medical center in Northern California. Children's Hospital Branches, Inc. is comprised of approximately 200 women ranging in age from 15 to 95 years residing in 5 Bay Area counties. All of our members are volunteers. Other than three part time administrative employees, we have no paid staff. We are thus able to maximize the benefit of our fundraising efforts.

How we do it

In addition to the wonderful funds we raise at our Bambino thrift shop, each of our 10 Branches host fundraisers annually to benefit Children's Oakland.
