The 37th annual Mount Sinai Children’s Center Foundation (CCF) Benefit returns to the Big Apple Circus on Sunday, November 10, under the “Big Top at Lincoln Center.” Click here to purchase tickets.
This is the largest fundraiser for the Foundation and an opportunity to bring together the Mount Sinai community of faculty, staff, families, and friends. Ticket purchases and donations will support every aspect of family-centered care.
The benefit will be a fun-filled family day with a private performance of the Big Apple Circus, activities, gifts for the kids, and complimentary refreshments. Doors open at 3 pm, and the private performance begins at 4 pm. The Big Apple Circus is located in Damrosch Park at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.
“This year’s benefit chairs are CCF board members Madi Rothenberg Karpova and Ivan Karpov, and we are so grateful to them for all of their support,” says Lisa M. Satlin, MD, Herbert H. Lehman Professor and System Chair of the Jack and Lucy Clark Department of Pediatrics.
Proceeds from this year’s benefit will support essential renovations at Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital, therapeutic programs to alleviate stress and anxiety during a child’s hospital stay, and innovative research to advance pediatric medicine.
The event will also honor the Food Allergy Treatment and Research Center at the Elliot and Roslyn Jaffe Food Allergy Institute and the surgeons of Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital.
“The tremendous support that the Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital and the Jack and Lucy Clark Department of Pediatrics receive from the Mount Sinai Children’s Center Foundation and our annual benefit helps ensure our ability to provide top-quality care for our youngest patients. It helps us extensively in our mission of delivering innovative care, research, and education that equitably advances health for children and families,” says Dr. Satlin. “We are deeply grateful for the efforts of the Mount Sinai Children’s Center Foundation.”
