"If God is with us, it will be accomplished … God will help us; the work is his!" - Saint Jeanne Jugan
The Auxiliary Committee is a group of men and women who support the work of the Little Sisters at Queen of Peace by assisting with fundraising events. There are many ways to be involved:
organize events – a behind the scenes job of assisting with event specific tasks prior to the event day. This may include assisting with collecting items to be used in the event auctions, preparing auction baskets, assembling welcome packages, or creating appropriate signs
volunteer at events – assist with various tasks to help make the event run smoothly. This may include running the Welcome/Registration table, selling items or raffle tickets
attend events with a group of family and/or friends
The Auxiliary hosts three annual events each year: the Garden Party which is held at Queen of Peace in early September; GermanFest, held in mid-January which is held at Hempstead Country Club, and the Golf Outing, also held at Hempstead Country on the first Monday in May.
Membership is flexible. You may also choose to attend bimonthly meetings, attend sponsored funding events as your time permits, or simply support the work of the Auxiliary by becoming a registered member. Active membership is a wonderful way to make new friends.

The Auxiliary continues to grow. Having been a member since its inception, I am always in awe of the efforts, talents and support that the Auxiliary provides to The Little Sisters in their mission to care for the poor and frail elderly. There is great camaraderie among its members which consist of men and women. It is a wonderful opportunity to forge new friendships. -Mary
