This charity training sports program is not only the first and best, but it is also the worlds largest and the only charity sports training program which offers a complete list of great sports training options.
TNT has grown in the past twenty years to become a truly first class sports training program.

Athletes train and compete in the sport of their choice while at the same time raising much-needed funds for individuals who are honored teammates. Knowing they are competing on behalf of people ‘whose challenge is even greater than their own’ is a great inspiration and motivator for the participants.

The Children’s Medical Fund of Long Island began as a dream a group of dedicated citizens had way back in 1966. For over seventeen years they toiled to make their dream a reality. Not only did they need to raise the funds to build a hospital, they also had to acquire legislative authorization to build the hospital.
Finally, in 1983 the Children’s Medical Fund witnessed the opening of Schneider Children’s Hospital in New Hyde Park, thus having the distinction of being the very first hospital in New York dedicated to servicing children.
Corey Ribotsky, managing partner of the NIR Group of Roslyn, New York is the current president of CMF, helping this idealistic group of volunteers continue to help the children of New York get the medical care they need in a manner both child oriented and state of the art.

Corey continued to explain that under ordinary circumstances or normal market environments, most of the companies, and especially those in the small and micro cap sector, are ignored by Wall Street.
What is really positive for us, according to Ribotsky, is that in the current atmosphere these companies are truly bypassed, and this is the “best environment for investing that I have seen in 15 years. Credit has been turned off and companies that are not big enough or haven’t “turned the corner” enough in a normal market do not have too many places to go.”

Corey Ribotsky of NIR Group
As the financial climate evolves alternative forms of investing are being established. Recently, traditional methods of borrowing, such as receiving loans from investment banks, have become increasingly difficult to obtain. Stepping into the ever enlarging vacuum are alternative sources of loans, such as hedge funds from investment firms. One of those alternative investment firms is the NIR Group headquartered in Roslyn, NY. For the past 10 years the NIR Group has been lending directly to small and medium sized companies and oversees $7 billion in investments. Corey Ribotsky, Managing Member of NIR comments, “Alternative investment vehicles are going to replace banks and investment banks as being the only financing source for a lot of companies, small, medium and large. That field has increased tenfold as traditional investment banks and traditional banks have not been able to lend to these companies at all.”
