Corey Ribotsky, head portfolio manager at the NIR Group investment firm of Roslyn, New York,  is not the kind of person to sit back and let life pass him by just because he his successful at his vocation. In addition to having a bustling business life and a dedicated philanthropic life Ribotsky has been an executive producer on two highly successful film projects.

In 2008 Corey Ribotsky helped produce the acclaimed drama, ‘Hounddog’, with Dakota Fanning, Robin Wright Penn and David Morse in the starring roles. The story takes place during the 1950’s in rural Alambama. It is about a young, high-spirited girl and her struggle to overcome the repression she lives with. Directed by Deborah Kampmeier, this is a movie to inspire us to have hope even under the most trying of circumstances.

One of many recipients of funding from the NIR Group of Roslyn New York is the Sunrise Day Camp, the only day camp entirely dedicated  to servicing children with cancer in the United States.

Located in the 300-acre Henry Kaufman Campgrounds on the border between Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island, New York, the beautiful wooded camp offers the fun and excitement of summer camp while allowing the children to return to the safety and comfort of their own homes in the evenings.

The camp is for children being treated for  cancer and related disorders ages 3-16 and charges no tuition or camp fees to the families of these children.

Sunrise Day Camp also offers programing all year long, including a large variety of social and fund-raising events such as the annual “Walk to Help the Sun Rise.”

This is certainly a worthy cause that Corey Ribotsky and the NIR Group are proud to be a part of.
