Welcome to the official website of the La Providencia Guild.  We hope that you will find information on this site that will help you learn more about Our Guild and more importantly, about the work and research of the Children's Hospital Los Angeles.


La Providencia Guild is one of 28 Associate and Affiliate members with the Children's Hospital Los Angeles and is governed by the Associates & Affiliates Office at the Hospital.  Our members are all volunteers with one purpose in mind, to do what we can to help fund the services and research of the Hospital.  This year we are raising funds for the The Associates Endowed Chair for the Chief of the Children's Orthopaedic Center and the Associates Endowment for Liver and Intestinal Research.  The La Providencia Guild started in Burbank in 1947 and we recently celebrated our 71st birthday!  Our biggest fundraiser for the Hospital is our thrift shop, located  at 3301 W. Burbank Blvd., in Burbank.  Our 122 member Guild, gives  their time and resources to keep the shop open. We also are grateful to our many generous donors from around the Los Angeles area, who keeps us with stock.
