Back to School Party

The annual San José Clinic Back to School event in collaboration with the Charity Guil of Catholic Women provides patient families with children entering grades pre-k through 5th grade with a backpack, grade appropriate school supplies and gift cards to purchase school uniforms. Generous donations from individuals, corporations and community groups support this program.

Christmas Party

This oldest patient program began more than 98 years ago in the Clinic's early years and is now a Christmas tradition for Clinic patients and staff. Families who attend the event enjoy games and party treats before receiving gift cards from Santa Claus and his volunteer elves. They experience a fun and special day at the Clinic and leave with a keepsake family picture with Santa and hope for a memorable Christmas. The Clinic receives support from many individuals, companies and community groups that sponsor gift drives and volunteer on the day of the party.
