Retail Businesses

The Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary operates two retail businesses: the Gift Shop, and the Superfluity Thrift Shop. In addition to that, there are many smaller, but very important services that are performed on a regular basis by our members. These services contribute to patient comforts in both Acute and Residential Care.

Gift Shop

The Gift Shop is in the main lobby of the Peace Arch Hospital, and is fully volunteer run! We sell clothing, scarves, gifts, souvenirs, and more. All proceeds go towards patient comforts and equipment for the hospital.

Thrift Shop

This Thrift Shop offers a wide variety of items and is supported by Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary volunteers. One of the easiest ways you can support the Peace Arch Hospital is to donate to the shop!

What We Do

You may know us for working hard at the Superfluity Thrift Shop, or at the Hospital Gift Shop, but you may not know about the many acts of kindness that happen throughout the hospital and the community. While fundraising for Peace Arch Hospital is why we exist, there are so many thoughtful, helpful, vibrant, loving, selfless and passionate members in the Auxiliary. Each one contributes in meaningful and exciting ways in many areas of the hospital.

Here is a sample of the many acts of kindness you may not see, but happen every day!
