Money Raised Will Support Expansion of NYU Lutheran’s Emergency Department
NYU Lutheran hosted its 133rd Annual Dinner Dance at Chelsea Piers in Manhattan on Wednesday, April 6. Emceed by Gus Rosendale, NBC 4 reporter and anchor, the charity event was attended by more than 500 guests and raised $800,000 to support the expansion of NYU Lutheran’s emergency department.
This year’s honorees, Claudia Lyon, DO, section chief of family medicine at NYU Lutheran; Carla Solomon, trustee of NYU Langone Health System and member of the NYU Lutheran Advisory Board; and Antonio Magliocco Jr., president of Bulldog Ventures Ltd, were celebrated for their years of dedication to the institution.
The recipient of the Sister Elisabeth Fedde Medal of Service, Dr. Lyon, was recognized for her 28 years of commitment to patient care and leadership excellence at NYU Lutheran. The award, named after the Norwegian deaconess who laid the foundation for NYU Lutheran in 1883, was established to recognize individuals who carry on her legacy of service and commitment to the community.
