T&T Local Network Services Employees for Charity teed off at a recent AT&T-sponsored golf outing
to benefit Winthrop-University Hospital's Cancer Center for Kids. Employees from Long Island, West-chester and New Jersey banded together to raise $10,000 to help in the care of the 30 to 40 kids, from infant to adolescents, who are treated for various types of cancer everyday at the Cancer Center
for Kids.

Bookless, AT&T Local Network Services' New York Operations Manager (right), presented a check for $10,000 on behalf of AT&T Local Network Services Employees for Charity to Mark Weinblatt, MD (center), Chief, Pediatric Oncology /Hematology and Director of the Pediatric Cancer Program at Winthrop and John P. Broder, Vice President, External Affairs and Development at Winthrop (left). While it may look like Shea Stadium, the check presentation actually took place in one of the many
children-friendly treatment rooms in the Nina Jillian Rosenblatt Ambulatory Suite at Winthrop's Cancer Center for Kids.
