Relief and Recovery Fund at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital:
New York-Presbyterian Paramedics were one of the first crews to respond
to the World Trade Center Emergency. They continue to participate in
rescue efforts. The NewYork-Presbyterian Healthcare System, which includes
30 hospitals throughout the tri-state area, has received and treated over
500 patients during this week's World Trade Center Emergency.
The Relief and Recovery Fund at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital has been
established in response to the horrific events of September 11th. Gifts to
the Fund will support the Hospital's Ambulance Service, which lost seven
vehicles at the disaster site, and will also help support the Hospital's
counseling outreach and other efforts to our patients and staff during
this difficult time.
In the coming days, the Hospital will also be setting up a Fund for our
employees and their families who have suffered a direct loss as a result
of the tragedy. Gifts to the Relief and Recovery Fund should be sent to:
