The Children’s Medical Fund of New York & Corey Ribotsky
The Children’s Medical Fund of New York is constantly growing and creating new, amazing programs. With their President, Corey Ribotsky, their goal is to build the best children’s medical facility ever seen. This volunteer-driven, nonprofit organization, the Children’s Medical Fund of New York, is the largest supporter of the Schneider Children’s Hospital.
They have pioneered an incredibly rich and varied program called the Child Life Program. The objective of this program is to help families to better cope with the scary and overwhelming experience of staying in the hospital. They have trained Child Life Specialists who minimized stress for inpatients and outpatients.
Such programming includes the Clown Care Unit, the Pet Therapy Program, the Heather on Earth Music Therapy program, and many others.
