PPE for Jacobi-Montefiore EM Resident Physicians

Donation protected
Hello all! We are the Emergency Medicine Resident Physicians at Jacobi-Montefiore in the Bronx. We are in the most underserved part of NYC and are thus at the epicenter of the impact of this pandemic. We are seeing hundreds of COVID19 patients a day and are doing our best to save lives. 

We need your help to continue doing this work. Though our hospitals are trying to provide adequate PPE, there are national shortages. In some cases, we are getting only two N95 masks a week that we then re-use from patient to patient. These masks are supposed to be single patient use. We are seeing our own colleagues getting sick and being admitted into our hospitals. Some in the system have even lost their lives in this fight. 

We are asking you, our family and friends, to help us fundraise to get the PPE we need to take care of patients. We understand this is a difficult financial time for many and thus appreciate any small contribution. Even sharing this GoFundMe on your social media platform would go a long way.

The funding goal we have set will allow us to continue taking care of some of the most underprivileged patients in the country while safeguarding our own health. All leftover funds will be donated to support healthcare, food security, and housing access in our community. Please join us in this fight. 

Much appreciated,

EM Residents of Jacobi-Montefiore
