Great idea!
Question - Shouldn't this be a Holy Name Hospital (Teaneck) program?

I don't think it makes a difference if it's a program from Hackensack University Medical Center or if it's from Holy Name Medical Center. I'm sure all the local hospitals have different programs to benefit the community. Our community is served by several outstanding hospitals, all of which serve Teaneck residents.
