Another great way to support the Fund is by donating your time as a site visitor. Site visitors are volunteer ambassadors on staff at CUIMC, NYP, and NYSPI who review and approve requests for funds and perform yearly visits to monitor progress, seeing firsthand the wonderful work being done by our local community-based organizations. If you are interested in serving as a site visitor, please email our office at gca@cumc.columbia.edu.
