Jets Fans Raise More Than $50K For Goryeb Children's Hospital

Atlantic Health System and NY Jets Fight Pediatric Cancer as Part of the 'Crucial Catch: Intercept Cancer' Campaign

Five inspiring children who are undergoing or have completed treatment at Atlantic Health System's Goryeb Children's Hospital joined the New York Jets for yesterday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. Ellie, Ben, Will, Arion and Ethan enjoyed time on the sidelines during pre-game warm-ups and had the opportunity to talk to QB Sam Darnold and OL Kelechi Osemele before heading out onto the field to serve as honorary captains for the coin toss prior to kickoff.

Atlantic Health System's Goryeb Children's Hospital was the beneficiary of the Jets 50/50 Raffle presented by Florida Tech, and fans made the most of the opportunity to try their luck and support Goryeb Children’s Hospital, bringing in $104,000, a new record of funds raised during a Jets game. $52,458.00 of the money raised went to support Goryeb Children's Hospital.
