Auxiliary of Ahlbin Center For Rehabilitation

The mission of the Ahlbin Rehabilitation Centers at Bridgeport Hospital, a non-profit organization, is to provide care to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay. The Auxiliary supports the Ahlbin Centers to succeed in their mission by helping them to maintain a position of excellence in the field of rehabilitation medicine through several fundraisers held throughout the year.

Parents and their children can tour six fantasy theme rooms: Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, The Wizard of Oz, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, and The Pirate Room.

The Auxiliary's fundraising event,  The Enchanted Castle, gives our members many opportunities for community outreach.

In June, the Auxiliary sponsors the Junior Wheelchair Meet, the only one of its kind in Fairfield County. Over thirty children participate in various events ranging from 25 to 200 meters distance races in manual and motorized wheelchair categories, obstacle courses of varying degrees of difficulty and different types of ball throwing. The Junior Wheelchair Meet provides an opportunity for the children to not only compete, but also to socially interact and brings their families together for mutual support.
