The New Leadership Group was established in 1991 to bring together a dynamic cross-section of community-minded professionals, all with an interest in health care in New York City. Members come from diverse backgrounds including law, art, finance, marketing, and health care. Connect with others who share your interests, learn about current health care issues and trends, and raise funds to improve health care for children.

Healthy Kids Benefit--a fun cocktail party and silent auction--is held annually in June to raise funds to support a United Hospital Fund grant to improve health care for some of the most vulnerable children living in New York City.

Volunteers are needed to help with all aspects of this fundraiser from program planning to soliciting silent auction and raffle items, to staffing the event.

The Group also holds two education programs to increase awareness among its constituents about the critical health care issues facing New Yorkers.

Participants can attend the evening seminars, at which experts shed light on the complexities, dilemmas, and the latest developments in New York and the nation.

Engage and make connections with health care leaders.

Bedtime Story Project: Brings together books and volunteer storytellers in pediatric departments of New York City hospitals.

Hospitals in all five boroughs receive brand-new and gently used children's books, touching the lives of thousands of children.

Become more involved by planning the group's programs and activities, and you will also develop invaluable leadership skills.
