Explore Forming a Guild

What We Expect

Guilds are encouraged to plan at least one fundraising project each year. It can be as simple as a garage sale or as ambitious as a formal auction. Beyond this recommendation, guild activity and individual member involvement is flexible.

How We Help

Guild Association staff, trustees and committee members make it easy to start and maintain a guild with the following support:

• Event consulting and fundraising ideas
• Inspirational patient stories and hospital information to share at events
• Training and tips to help you increase your revenue
• Help from a guild accountant with necessary IRS filings
• Certification as a 501(c)3 nonprofit, including a federal taxpayer ID number
• Event liability insurance when applicable
• Basic event supplies, including banners and posters
