This year, we had nurses, social workers, physicians, residents, and many others from our MSBI family involved with the New York City Marathon.

Many of you also raised money for various charities as a part of your marathon adventure. Amanda Anderson, our Assistant Director of Quality and Patient Care Services, helped fund a whole year of healthcare for three children by raising money for the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center. Amber Geib, our Associate Director of Food and Nutrition, raised money for Think Pink Rocks, a breast cancer awareness organization. Thank you both and everyone else who donated or raised money as a part of the marathon.

Did you know our very own Garrison Resnick (Security Director for MSBI) is also a certified EMT and the VP of Operations for the volunteer group Central Park Medical Unit? Here he is briefing his team before the marathon.

These are just a few stories about our MSBI family who participated last weekend. We are so proud of you for your bravery, generosity, and commitment to your community and your health. Go MSBI!
