Support Bronx ER Frontline Healthcare Workers
Donation protected
We are raising money to send food, groceries, and healthy snacks to the emergency room at Bronx Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center. Lincoln is already one of the busiest emergency rooms in the country when not faced with a pandemic. We cannot provide masks or ventilators, but we can give ER nurses, doctors, staff and their families one less thing to worry about. We will be coordinating with the hospital to determine the best use of funds.
New York's healthcare workers are risking their health and their lives to combat COVID-19 as hospitals face a desperate shortage of masks and ventilators. This crisis will only get worse in the next few months. These are unprecedented times and we need to support the people who are working and risking their health to save others, however we can. Funds are needed as soon as possible.
Thank you!
