Old Hook Medical Associates Donation Campaign to Benefit Helping Hand Food Pantry

Old Hook Medical Associates (OHM), a multi-specialty medical practice located in Emerson, has deep roots in Bergen County and cares about the communities where staff and patients live.

At the suggestion of one of the practice’s administrators, OHM will donate $1 for every new Facebook “Like” (up to $350) during the month of March 2012 to the Helping Hand Food Pantry in Hillsdale.

“Issues that are important to our patients are important to us”, said Dr. Edward Gold, VP and Chief Medical Officer of Old Hook Medical Associates. “We’re part of this community and we heard from our staff that this is a very worthwhile organization that is doing a great job.”
