The Children’s Medical Fund of New York (CMF) works tirelessly to ensure that every child receives the best medical care possible. As President of CMS and Managing Member of the NIR Group, Corey Ribotsky works with many other volunteers to see the center’s missions fulfilled.

Presently, CMF is hoping to expand in many ways. They are hoping to build a dedicated pediatric emergency center so that they will no longer have to share an emergency room with Long Island Jewish Medical Center. At the moment, seriously ill children need to go to Long Island Jewish, unnecessarily exposing them to illnesses and issues common to an adult facility.

In addition, the Children’s Medical Fund of New York is hoping to create a new space to meet the growing pediatric needs of children in the area. At present, the Schneider Children’s Hospital, which was built to accommodate 40,000 annual visits, actually sees 160,000 children a year.

Children’s Medical Fund of New York (CMF) works to make sure that children on Long Island and in the New York area have the best pediatric care possible. They do so by raising funds to help build and equip state of the art facilities and by sponsoring vital programs.

Volunteers, such as Corey Ribotsky who is the current President of CMF and the managing member of NIR, and donors help children to live healthier, safer lives.

One major project that CMF is undertaking at the moment is the creation of a new space to meet the region’s growing demands for pediatric services. Their present building, the Schneider Children’s Hospital (SCH) was built in 1983 and was supposed to accommodate 40,000 annual visits. Today, it accommodates four times that amount!
