OUR ONGOING PROJECTS

JMF adolescent imaging center

In May 2022, the Jack Martin Fund made a new $3.5 million commitment to Mount Sinai. This commitment will establish the Jack Martin Fund Child and Adolescent Imaging Center at Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital.

 

The future 2,400 square-foot facility represents a major investment in advancing children’s cancer care through pediatric radiology, and will also provide the critical infrastructure to enhance and support the Mount Sinai Children’s Brain and Spinal Tumor Center for advanced research.

 

This new support follows on the heels of the early completion of the organizations $2.5 million commitment to develop the Jack Martin Fund Inpatient Unit for Children’s Cancer and Blood Disease. This state of the art unit was opened in the spring of 2018.

JMF’s ongoing commitments to Mt Sinai allow the Division of Pediatric Hematology & Oncology to continue to provide critical services and world class treatment. It has also established the division as one of premier centers of pediatric cancer care and research in the country.

THE HISTORY OF JMF

200 Women Built a Polio Citadel

It was only three years ago when young Jack Martin, an ex-Army officer and rising manufacturer, returned home to Manhattan from a country weekend with a bad cold. Two days later, he entered a hospital. Two days after that he died—of polio.
