Support for FDNY EMT Frederick Benjamin – Station 43 Coney Island

The EMS FDNY Help Fund is reaching out on behalf of our brother, EMT Frederick Benjamin of Station 43, who is currently battling lymphoma. Fred has been receiving intensive treatment and care at Maimonides Medical Center.

Recently, Fred was readmitted to the ICU due to complications from his ongoing cancer treatments. His condition remains serious but stable, and he continues to fight with strength and courage.

To help ease the burden on Fred and his family, we are now actively seeking donations to assist with ongoing medical and family expenses.

Fred and his wife, Ashley , and their entire family are grateful for all the support shown so far. Visitation will be arranged when Fred gets stronger. We will share updates as they become available.

Despite the challenges ahead, his family remains optimistic and strong. Let’s rally behind one of our own and show EMT Benjamin the strength and solidarity of our FDNY family.
