“It was an easy decision to have our baby at Mount Sinai. The hospital is close to our home, it has great doctors, and a Level III NICU, if the need arises. We couldn’t be happier.” Alison Kunkel, Young President/Young Founder Young Presidents ClubThe Young Presidents Club (YPC) has a young, active, community-minded membership that bonds by helping others of all ages, starting with the very young. YPC members are creative and involved. Just one of the club’s achievements, YPC envisioned, planned and funded our hospital’s on-site daycare for the children of hospital employees. Another YPC brainchild is the Sons & Daughters Scholarship Program. The program, first established in 1973, recognizes students for their academic achievement, community service and writing skills. What if your membership in the Young Presidents Club can help many of the community’s young people and provide your family with the best place to give birth in the county? The need for young philanthropists has never been greater. At this pivotal time in the Foundation’s history, when your donations are perhaps more important than ever, we ask you to consider a few What ifs... What if Mount Sinai Medical Center were no longer here to serve you and the community? What if you and your family were not able to count on Mount Sinai’s excellent medical staff and services in the future? What if your gift can provide doctors and nurses with on-campus child care services so they can focus on saving lives? Make the decision today to donate to South Florida’s largest private, independent, not-for-profit teaching hospital in support of Great Medicine for yourself, your family and your community.
