Sights on Health, Inc., a 501c3 nonprofit organization is asking the community for donations in order to purchase meals for frontline healthcare workers and support staff at the public NYC Health and Hospitals and Long Island Hospitals. All of us at Sights on Health feel ourselves in solidarity with healthcare providers who are working and struggling their way through the Covid-19 pandemic. As a medical and surgical charity providing care abroad with limited resources, we understand the difficulties of offering optimal care in tough circumstances. Now, here in our own community, our physicians, nurses and allied healthcare professionals, many who have participated in our medical missions, are on the front lines. Our heroes are working tirelessly to treat & save the lives of fellow New Yorkers infected with Covid-19. Help us provide them with nourishment & encouragement and that their efforts are appreciated.
Here’s Sights on Health’s plan:
Provide hot meals, individually wrapped and labeled for frontline healthcare workers & support staff (secretarial, janitorial, etc.). They will be delivered to hospital units and floors caring for Covid-19 patients at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens, the original epicenter of the virus in NYC. Our goal is to expand this program to other overwhelmed hospitals such as additional city hospitals, as well as those on Long Island. With the monies raised through this page and your generosity, Sights on Health will coordinate with each hospital administrator to ensure the food goes directly to the intended staff members. All meals will be ordered from local restaurants as a way to help support & maintain business in the local communities during this crisis.
Thank you in advance for your support to help feed our NY frontline healthcare heroes!
