The St. Jerome Guild, Inc., a not-for-profit volunteer organization has been serving the local healthcare community for decades and celebrated a 100-year Jubilee a few years ago and the group continues to be an active organization donating vital equipment to UMMC. The Guild’s Hometown Heroes Star Initiative honoring all UMMC employees for their humanitarian efforts during the height of the pandemic raised $3000. These funds contributed toward the Guild’s $7000 purchase of an urgently needed freezer to store the Covid vaccine.

In 2022, the Guild pledged $20,000 over five years toward the Intensive Care Unit Expansion at UMMC North Street, and donated $1000 over five years towards the Foundation Cornerstone initiative. The Guild’s Gift Shop is excited to be moving from Bank Street to UMMC’s new destination campus on Oak Orchard Road in winter of 2024.

For decades, the Guild offers to UMMC employees pursuing higher educational careers, our annual Health Professional Scholarships. Children who visit Urgent Care and Emergency Department are comforted with plush animals. Cancer patients have received care bags of personal items. The Guild has sponsored the Jerome Center Annual Employee Recognition Day to thank employees for their efforts in serving the community. 

Guild members donate thousands of volunteer hours working at both shops and on UMMC Foundation projects. Over the years the Guild has hosted many fundraisers including fashion show luncheons and hopes to sponsor another next summer. St. Jerome Gift Shop business hours vary Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m.

New members are welcome to join the Guild throughout the year and a membership tea is held in September. Members attend regular monthly meetings that include a program and guest speakers. The Guild manages a monthly lottery and the community is invited to participate. Please join our Facebook page to view our inventory at: St. Jerome Gift Shop.
