St. Mary’s Healthcare System for Children is committed to improving the health and quality of life for children and families with special needs. Children and young adults are provided a continuum of care that has paved the way for pioneering pediatric post-acute care. We are New York’s largest and most experienced provider of long-term care to children with medically complex conditions. We are also New York City’s only post-acute care facility for children and are recognized for the breadth of our services and the depth of our commitment.
At St. Mary’s we rely on donations both big and small. More than 90 percent of our patients need a level of care that surpasses what their families can afford and what Medicaid covers. The generosity of our donors has given our children and young adults hope, performed miracles, and have allowed St. Mary’s Kids and their families to flourish. Our goal is to give our kids and their families more than what they dream possible. We want to ensure that their quality of life and dignity is what all children deserve.
With the holiday season fast approaching and COVID-19 still a threat to our health and well-being, we are unable to be together to celebrate in person. Additionally, we are unable to accept any type of toy donation or drop off this holiday season. But, there are ways you can still be involved with St. Mary’s Kids through this holiday season. We are accepting gifts from our Amazon wish list and if you set St. Mary’s as the charity you support, St. Mary’s will get an extra added bonus from your gift. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, gifts and monetary donations will need to be sent directly to St. Mary’s.
More than ever, we need supporters like you to ensure that we’re ready to face whatever the future holds. Consider making a donation today and be on the lookout for other virtual fundraising events happening in November and December.
