Our Mission

Today, our mission remains the same: to provide ongoing funding for CMFNY programs that are vital to the needs of seriously ill children and their families. Your donations, time and support all fuel the lifeblood to achieving these goals.

Over the years, Children's Medical Fund of New York has raised funds to:

Open the "CMF Center for Pediatric Diagnostic Studies"

Create the Child Life Endowment

The Blumenfeld Family Pavilion

Seacrest Studios

Purchase much needed medical equipment

Enhance exploration in areas such as oncology and neurology

Further education

Institute new programs

We help finance the Child Life Program, which was created to help children and their families better cope with the hospital experience. Designed for inpatients and outpatients, the Child Life Program aims to minimize the stress often associated with illness or injury, enhance normal patters of living and promote optimum growth and development for children.
