Burke Auxiliary

The Burke Rehabilitation Auxiliary, established in 1959, is a group of men and women with the following mission:

To enhance the patient and staff experience;
To serve as a fundraising arm of the hospital;
To promote better understanding of Burke’s programs and goals within the community.

Since its beginning more than 50 years ago, the Burke Auxiliary has donated over $1 million to special projects at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital. The Auxiliary sponsors many events and activities throughout the year and members may be as active as they like.

For 2021, annual dues are $35 for an individual and $60 for a couple. To join, download a membership form here. For more information, contact Frances DeFreitas, Membership Chair, at 914-948-0978.
