Help Merle raise money

For participating in Robert I. Damie Race For Our Kids

My Story…

Dear Friends, It’s time again for the Race for Our Kids to benefit the Children’s Hospital at Sinai! We are participating once again as Team Jennifer’s Babies, and we hope you will support us by making a donation on behalf of our team. Many of you knew Jennifer or have heard us talk about her. For those of you not familiar with her story, Jennifer was a dedicated neonatologist at Sinai Hospital who passionately cared for the tiny, often extremely ill babies in Sinai's neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). She loved “her” babies! And everybody loved Jennifer. She was taken from us suddenly at the age of 34. September 21st marked 15 years since her passing but for us, it seems like yesterday. We hope you can help us keep her memory alive.
