A PS 321 parent has set up a GoFundMe page, Food for the Frontline, to support our Brooklyn hospital workers. She asked us to get the word out. From her Food for the Frontline page:
“I’ve set up a gofundme to raise funds to feed the doctors, nurses and other staff who are working tirelessly everyday. The funds will be used for all Brooklyn hospitals to help show our support to the Front Line as well as help support our local businesses.”
Operation Feed is also distributing restaurant meals to Brooklyn hospital staff, and has a weekly donation option.
A PS 39 parent has a GoFundMe page, raising money to buy meals for workers at NYP-Methodist Hospital from local Park Slope restaurants.
