VNS Health Team Members on “Why I Give to Strength from Within”
“My grandmother was a home health aide for many years in Harlem, and she is one of the reasons I was inspired to work at VNS Health. As a child, I saw how seriously she took her work and how much she cared for the people she looked after. The work was hard and physical at times, but she made a difference in the lives of those she met. Inspired by her dedication, I hope my donation will support those who need help but can’t afford it.”
—Corris Little, Senior Communications Specialist, Health Plan Marketing
“I am honored to contribute to this cause. Being able to support those in need, particularly when it comes to essential medical care, allows me to make a meaningful difference and shows that I truly care.”
—Rosa Marcus, Director, Support Services, Personal Care
“As a Mom and a Nurse, it’s in my nature to nurture and give. The Strength from Within Campaign is a perfect way to provide care in different but essential way-providing financial assistance to those in need.”
—Constance Evans, Registered Nurse, Preceptor, CHHA Brooklyn
