I am in New York! There are eleven member hospitals here, Bernard &
Millie Duker Children's Hospital at Albany Medical, Golisano Children's Hospital at Upstate, Komansky Center for Children's Health, Maria Fareri Children's Hospital at Westchester Medical Center, New York Presbyterian Hospital, Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital, New York Presbyterian Hospital, Weill Cornell Medical Center, NYU Langone Medical Center, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Stony Brook University Medical Center, The Children's Hospital at Montefiore, and Women's and Children's Hospital of Buffalo.

There is so much that occurs in New York! Maureen’s Hope Foundation is an organization that offers practical support and assistance for people facing the difficult challenges of cancer and other serious illnesses.
