Donations for patients

Timpanogos Regional Hospital

For many of our donors, the most satisfying gift is one that you purchase yourself and give to the Hospital Auxiliary for patient use. Because the health of our patients always comes first, Timpanogos Hospital staff can only give brand-new toys and games to patients.

What we can accept

Our goal is to align your donations with our needs. Due to our limited storage and specific patient needs, we ask donors to choose items listed on our wish list.

Donations can be dropped off at the hospital.

750 West, 800 North, Orem, UT 84057

Simply pull up to the valet and let the volunteer at the front desk know you are dropping off donations.
